Guingamp vs Nancy Prediction & Betting Tips (3 October)

Guingamp welcomes Nancy to the Stade du Roudourou this Friday in a Ligue 2 clash that promises tension and tactical intrigue. Sylvain Ripoll’s men currently sit 8th in the standings with 10 points, having secured three wins in their last five outings. The Breton side has shown flashes of attacking flair, particularly through their midfield transitions, and their projected goal average of 1.5 suggests they’ll find the net again. Ripoll has leaned on a compact 4-2-3-1 formation, with the likes of Amine El Ouazzani and Jérémy Livolant expected to be key contributors in the final third.

Nancy, under the guidance of Óscar Correa, arrives in Guingamp with a slightly better league position—6th with 11 points—but a more erratic form line. Two wins and two losses in their last five matches highlight a side still searching for consistency. Defensive frailties have plagued them, with goals conceded in each of their last five Ligue 2 fixtures. Correa has been experimenting with a high press, but the backline—anchored by the experienced Abdelhamid El Kaoutari—has struggled to contain counterattacks, especially against teams with pace on the wings.



The tactical battle will likely hinge on midfield control and defensive discipline. Guingamp’s ability to exploit Nancy’s vulnerability on the flanks could be decisive, especially if Livolant and El Ouazzani find space to operate. Nancy, meanwhile, will look to their creative engine, Warren Bondo, to unlock Guingamp’s defense with incisive passing. Set pieces could also play a pivotal role, with both teams showing recent proficiency in dead-ball situations. Expect a match that swings with momentum, but ultimately favors the home side’s structure and finishing edge.

Our prediction leans toward a 2-1 victory for Guingamp. The hosts’ recent scoring form and Nancy’s defensive lapses suggest a narrow but deserved win for Ripoll’s side. While Nancy will likely get on the scoresheet—perhaps through a moment of individual brilliance—their inability to shut down sustained pressure could be their undoing. With both teams eager to climb the table, this fixture should deliver drama, goals, and a result that nudges Guingamp closer to the promotion conversation.

• Summary: Guingamp is going head to head with Nancy starting on 3 Oct 2025 at 18:00 UTC at Stade du Roudourou stadium, Guingamp city, France. The match is a part of the Ligue 2 .
