Angers will play host to Saint-Etienne in the French Ligue 1, round number 29.
If you look at the table, these two seem 2 similar teams in terms of quality, but they are not. Angers is a newly promoted team that with an incredible defensive stability, worked their way up in the standings. Of course, like it often happens, when a person sees that he did enough to be safe, he relaxes, and performs poorly. This happened to Angers recently, with just 1 win in the last 6 games. It must be said that in some games they were robbed by the refs, but in others they were just poor, like vs Montpellier when they were 0-3 at HT.

Angers will miss it’s most important player, Cheikh N’Doye. This guy is incredible, a Yaya Toure style midfielder, that is captain and also top scorer of Angers.
St Etienne is an interesting team. Last year they were ultra defensive, 2nd best defense after Monaco. This year, they started in the same way, but they were not scoring. They changed some stuff and now they are scoring more freely, which I think is excellent in front of a team like Angers.
My pick is Saint-Etienne to win this match. Angers will lack the same motivation as “Les Verts” and also will lack their leader, N’Doye, who has a big impact. The odds offered on this bet by 1xBet are very good in my opinion.
