Key Players
- There is a bit more tactical interest to this fixture than usual as Amiens likes to play in a compact, structured shape and frustrate opponents, while Guingamp is a more positive, attacking side that looks to break teams down in transition.
- Sylvain Ripoll’s Guingamp will look to stretch the field with their players on the wings and high tempo, aggressive style of play, deploying a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1.
-
Key players:
- They don’t have a lot of quality in attack, so winger Yvan Ikia Dimi, who has scored 4 Ligue 2 goals in 14 appearances, is their main attacking threat.
- They have an edge in quality and Louis Mafouta, who leads the team’s goals tally with 5 Ligue 2 goals in 14, is likely to be the biggest threat.
Betting Insights
- The SC Amiens vs EA Guingamp betting tips suggest odds-on favorites EA Guingamp offer excellent value for this Ligue 2 contest at 1.95 compared to the 3.79 about SC Amiens, who have lost their last 3 games.
- The odds are definitely in the visitors' favour for this one and Under 2.5 goals at 1.83 is also likely to attract the more cautious bettors here.
Prediction
Guingamp has not won in their last two away visits to Amiens, but we think they have the form and quality to come out on top of this tight contest because of their attacking edge and the hosts are not as solid as people think.
