Annecy to Win
Annecy have hit a rich vein of form of late and they should be considered to extend their five-game run without defeat with a victory at lower-league Belfort in the Coupe de France on Sunday. Annecy already won at one of the strongest National 2 sides, Lyon La Duchere, earlier in the competition, and they should be able to harness their superior class against another team from that division, Belfort, this weekend. With that in mind, our first prediction settles on an away win.
Over 1.5 Annecy Goals
Annecy have been enjoying themselves in the final third in this season’s Coupe de France so far, and they could have another productive afternoon in attack when they visit Belfort on Sunday. Annecy rattled the net nine times in the last two rounds of the tournament and they have the potency up front to tear their host’s defence asunder this weekend. As a result, a stake on Annecy to lodge over 1.5 goals appeals at the prices on offer.

Annecy

Player to Watch – Moise Sahi
Ivorian striker Moise Sahi is Annecy’s leading marksman in Ligue 2 this term with eight goals and the 21-year-old has also plundered four goals in the Coup de France, making him one of his team’s most dangerous attackers in that competition too. Sahi should have chances to add to his tally for the campaign on Sunday and he could be a decent option in the anytime goalscorer stakes.
