Guingamp will be looking for back-to-back wins for the first time since March when they host Bastia on Friday night.
The hosts won three in a row in March to put themselves in contention for promotion, but their form quickly faded. Sylvain Ripoll's side have lost three of their last four matches and conceded nine goals in the process. Les Guingampais still occupy one of the play-off places for promotion to the top flight at the end of the season, but with just one point separating them from sixth-placed Stade Laval, defeat to Bastia this week could prove costly.
Bastia have made great strides this season and currently sit six places above last year's position, but their recent form has been poor, particularly away from home. The visitors are winless in their last five away games, three of which were defeats and they failed to score in as many games.
Guingamp vs SC Bastia Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
Bastia may have the fifth-worst away record in Ligue 2 this season, but they do not concede many goals on the road. Benoit Tavenot's side have conceded less than a goal in five of their last seven Ligue 2 away games, with the same number of games ending with fewer than 2.5 goals scored.
Most of the recent league meetings between Guingamp and Bastia have also been low-scoring affairs. Four of the last five have ended under 2.5 goals and I expect a similar result on Friday.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Idriss Planeix has missed the last 18 games of Guingamp due to a meniscus injury and Friday’s game will come too soon for the centre back.
The hosts’ injury list also includes Amine Hemia and Kalidou Sidibé who are nursing ankle and calf injuries, respectively.

SC Bastia team news
Félix Tomi is a doubt for Bastia this week due to a knock, but head coach Benoit Tavenot has no other injury concerns.
Lamine Cissé has been the club’s top scorer this season with eight goals and the French professional is expected to be joined upfront by Ble upfront, while Vincent will be the man to watch in the engine room.
