Bourg-en-Bresse have traveled here for an interesting fight against the hosts Bastia. Prepare for the match with this National preview!

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the National. That game was an away game at Le Mans, so at least Bastia are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Bastia form and stats

Bastia's first National home game here at Stade Armand-Césari ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 10 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat from 11 matches.

Bastia are returning here after visiting Le Mans in a National game and winning with a 3-1 scoreline. Preceding that match was the home game against Boulogne that was lost 0-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Bastia have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found two games) they have won one time, drawn zero and lost one.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Bastia at home in the league. 0 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
