Epinal vs Villefranche Prediction & Betting Tips (10 May)

Epinal boast an impressive recent home record at the top table of the National, securing 10 victories in 14 attempts, one of which was a success against these opponents back this year. Speaking of Villefranche, they have struggled massively on the road of late, returning with zero points from 10 of their last 14 trips in the National.

Epinal have become renowned for keeping things tight on home soil, with 14 of their previous 18 top-flight fixtures, including nine in a row of late, serving up under 2.5 goals. A thriller would therefore seem unlikely against most opponents, but particularly against a Villefranche side that has been involved in 10 such low-scoring encounters across their last 14 trips.

It has been quite unusual to see both teams on target in recent Epinal home matches, with this being the case in just six of their previous 19 games in the league. What’s more, Villefranche have either failed to score or kept a clean sheet in each of their last four away matches at this level, so it would come as a surprise were the net to bulge at both ends here.
