Ligue 2 betting preview: Tours- Dijon
Right back Abdoulaye Bamba misses out for Dijon tonight, he is pretty much the first defensive name on the team sheet nowadays, but they were 3-2-0 (only conceding twice) in his absence last season and right now, that "handicap" doesn't look enough to stop them . They looked very impressive in beating Le Havre 2-1 on Friday, they trailed at the break, but did not panic and goals always looked likely, infact, were it not for two world class saves from the visiting keeper, they would have doubled their tally and despite their 4-0-0 home record, this is a team who I feel are ideally set up to play on the road and as many of you know ,front man Julio Tavares is a player I am very keen on ( see Tours-Creteil notes) and we tend to see the best of him away from home. DFCO should have gone up last season, but lost they way for a month or so in early spring and came up a frustrating three points short, with one, possibly two inferior teams being promoted. They will want to get the job done this time round and they have not come here looking for a single point, they did the double over Sochaux last season without conceding and it is hard to see the hosts putting them under too much pressure this evening, as they are without a win in 14 league starts and have failed to score in nine of those and have not beaten a top half of the table team since early November ! It was hardly a surprise that they sacked head coach Olivier Echouafni last week, but it was hard to see too much improvement offensively from them on Friday under the interim pair of coaches, the duo might shake things up tonight and have named a big squad of 20 players, but I do not see where, Karl Toko Ekambi (who is the only player to score this season !) aside, the goals are going to come from and they probably need two to get anything from this, with Dijon scoring 11 in winning their last four and have at least a goal in their last six, two or more in five.
Good Luck.
