Angers vs Dunkerque Prediction & Betting Tips (17 May)

Relegated last year from the elite after a real crux, Angers has a great opportunity to make up for it on this last day in order to restore the situation and put this 2022-2023 exercise among bad memories. The Sco is in fact in 2nd position in the ranking with 2 points ahead of the 3rd, Saint-Etienne, but with a worse goal difference +14 against +18 for the Greens. In other words, Alexandre Dujeux's men must win to keep their destiny in hand. Less well between February and mid-April, Raymond Kopa's residents have regained great momentum at the end of the season by winning 4 victories over the last 5 days. Only stopped by Paris FC 3-1, the Angevins revived by dominating Pau 2-1 and Annecy 1-2. For its part, Dunkerque obtained what it hoped for during this 2023-2024 season by winning its maintenance .

However, the situation got off to a bad start during the winter break when the club was floundering in the red zone after a missed first part of the season. But everything accelerated after the winter break for the Maritimes who were able to string together successes to distance themselves from the last 4 places. Now 6th in the standings with 5 points ahead of the first relegated team, Luis Castro's men were dominated by Bordeaux 2-0 and Auxerre 1-3 before winning against Quevilly Rouen Métropole 1-2. Finally, last week, they fought back to get a point against Caen 2-2.

The Sco will approach this decisive meeting without the important Lopy and the very precious Ferhat (2 goals, 3 assists) who are both bothered by physical problems at the very end of the season. Otherwise, coach Alexandre Dujeux should be able to count on a complete group which should include the formidable offensive players who have had the best time for this team this season. We think of the Algerians El Melali (8 goals, 5 assists) and Abdelli (9 goals, 2 assists), the promising Lepaul (3 goals, 3 assists), the experienced Capelle (5 goals) and the formidable scorer Diony (15 goals).

The last two cities also scored the 2 Angevin goals last weekend in Annecy.
