AS Cannes (Home)
- Ligue 3 2026/2027's 5th-placed side AS Cannes will host 9th-placed SC Amiens in the French third tier on Thursday, with both sides enjoying a good start to the new campaign.
- Chabert's side saw off Le Puy 2-0 at home and then took a clean sheet and a win on the road away to Versailles, winning 0-3.
- Cannes are unbeaten at home in Ligue 3 2026/2027 after 2 games, picking up 1 win and a draw, and conceding just 1 goal there so far this season.
SC Amiens (Away)
- Amiens have had a solid if unspectacular start to the season, picking up 7 points from their first 5 games to sit 2 points below Cannes in the table.
- Alain Pochat's team are also 2 games unbeaten after back-to-back victories saw them beat Versailles 3-0 at home, before they traveled to take on SC Bastia and won 0-3.
Key Players
- Leandro Morante has 2 goals in 5 games to lead the scoring for Cannes.
- Mathis Colin has 2 goals in 5 Ligue 3 2026/2027 games and 2 of his goals have come in Amiens' last 5 matches.
Betting Insights
- Amiens have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 1 of their 3 away games, scoring just 3 goals in the process.
- In contrast, Cannes have been very compact and defensively strong at home, conceding just 1 in 2.
- The odds here have Cannes coming in as the 2.11 favorites, but this looks like it will be a tough game and Amiens' odds are more attractive.
- We think both teams are a little overpriced and we will stay on the sidelines in the match betting.
- This is a press-versus-possession chess game.
- Amiens want to press and run at the opposition and try to turn the game into a race, whereas Cannes will want to keep things compact and controlled, pressing based on triggers.
- Under 2.5 goals looks a good play here considering both teams' performances so far this term and the home and away form.
- Cannes are the more likely winner, but don't expect a runaway here.
Prediction
Back Under 2.5 goals ; Cannes are the more likely winner, but don't expect a runaway .
