What to expect
We expect about 0.8 goals from Laval and 0.9 from Sochaux, which is as level as our reading of a game gets. Put together, that is around 1.8 goals in the game, so we are braced for a tight one where good chances are rare.
Laval come into this on three straight defeats. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.
Our pick: Not both teams to score. This shapes up as a quiet, low-key game — around 1.8 goals between the two (xG 0.8-0.9). One side keeping it tight for a clean sheet is well on the cards.
We put the chance of that landing at about 49 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.86, which works out at about 54 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.
