Checking for the match Lorient vs Ajaccio, the home form of Lorient has been decent, they accumulated five wins with three draws and losses. Ajaccio's form has counted seven losses with three wins, and a couple of split games. In their first fixture this season, Lorient won by a single goal.

Under 2.5 Goals

Lorient has been one of the best over 2.5 goals teams in the league this season with 16 matches of more than two goals scored, and only seven the other way. Ajaccio is in the bottom half with eleven ‘over' matches. When we look at the h2h matchup of this Lorient vs Ajaccio prediction, the narrative is that these teams have trouble scoring goals against each other with the last five league games featuring only one goal in each of them. It would seem that going against that way of thinking would be logical considering how many injury problems Ajaccio has, however, Lorient sold two of its best strikers last month, so goals might come in a bit harder for the home side than anyone suspects.

Lorient vs Ajaccio Lineups, Preview, and Team News

Lorient

The Lorient management shocked their fans in the January transfer window when they decided to sell two of their best scorers. Terem Moffi has been terrific this season in Ligue 1 scoring 12 goals, and he was shipped to Nice. Dango Ouattara, the team's second-best scorer was sold to Bournemouth. For the upcoming match, coach Regis Le Bris can't count on injured players Bonke Innocent, Theo Le Bris, Julien Laporte, and Laurent Abergel.

Provisional lineup: Mannone, Kalulu, Meite, Talbi, Yongwa, Makengo, Le Fee, Diarra, Ponceau, Cathline, Kone.

Player to Watch: Ibrahima Kone

With Terem Moffi and Dango Ouattara out of the team, the 23-year-old Mali striker Ibrahima Kone will get a chance to shine. He scored three goals this season with a single assist on the record as well, but in very limited minutes. He will get a lot more first-team football before the season ends.
