THE PREDICTION

Things could not be much worse for Lorient right now as it is now six games since they last scored a goal, with Christophe Pelissier’s struggling side picking up just one point during that stretch. The pressure on the manager is undoubtedly mounting right now despite a vote of confidence given by the club president and they desperately need a result here against Nimes. The visitors are also in a rut right now as they have lost six of their last seven games and only scored twice in that time so having confidence in either side here is ill-advised. Given the lack of potency up front on both sides of the pitch, backing under 2.5 goals is the suggestion.
