Nancy - Angers - France L I

Wager: $200. We turn our attention to Soccer in France, Ligue I:  Nancy and Angers will meet face to face on Saturday night at 20:00 CET (2:00 p.m. EST), at Stade Marcel-Picot (Tomblaine). Nancy is 16th in the Table with 16 points, out of 16 matches of the championship. Angers is 11th in the standings, as the team managed to collect 19 pts. after 16 rounds.  They seek to move up in the Top 10. The hosts Nancy allowed 9 goals in the last 5 games, 1.8 Goals per game. Angers has scored 5 goals in the last 5 games, i.e. 1 Goal per game. In their last game at home they tied last place Lorient 2-2, i.e., 4 goals total in this match. The Sports pundits are expecting a low scoring game, as the projections all over the net are for 'under' in this match. However, they all underestimate Angers and their ability to score goals. The odds for 'over' are very attractive.  With that, I pick the option 'Alternative Goal Line' @ Bet365-Match Total "Over 1.5 Goals." In order to avoid a confusion, we listed the odds in both systems: Decimal + American; Click here to learn the difference between them.  Unless the bet amount is defined, our wager is $100.

UPDATE December 10, 2016 - FINAL Result: Nancy 2-0 Angers. Nancy beat Angers by 2 goals to Nil: Dia in the 1st half, and Puyo in the 2nd secured the victory for the home side. The game was much closer than it looks, as Angers played much better than the hosts, and had their chances, but they just could not score. The home team had a 51% ball possession vs. 49% for Angers, i.e. pretty even. The corners were in solid favor for the visitors, showing who was really attacking: 12-2. In any event, we were lucky, since we did not need Angers to find the net today: Total goals scored in the match: 2, i.e., above our prediction of Over 1.5 Goals; We WON easily this bet. $200 returned total $310. ( the Sports 'Pundits' expected a low scoring game, that's why the odds for 'over 1.5 goals' paid 55% return!): $200 Principal + $110 Net Profit. If you are wondering, we are in a 3-game winning streak already...
