Laval vs Troyes Prediction & Betting Tips (21 November)

As for the locals, potentially starting defender Commaret and midfielder Thomas will certainly not be able to put on their crampons today. Executive defender Tavares is also forced to stay in the stands for this match. After starting his season well, veteran striker Tchokounté (2 goals and 1 assist) was relegated to the bench and it is now Camara (1 goal) who starts up front. He also unlocked his counter on the last day. The young Clavreul (3 goals) could start on the left side.

On the Troyes side, the young Traoré, the young full-back who has become a starter Titi and the unfortunate starting goalkeeper Lemaître will not make the trip to Mayenne, injured. The replacement Philiponeau could get closer to a return to the field but nothing has been decided yet. Already suspended against ASSE, the top scorer in Ligue 2, Bentayeb, author of 8 goals this season, will have to serve a second match. However, there are still some good people in this team with the playmaker Adeline (3 goals, 3 assists), the Ivorian Assoumou (4 goals), the midfielder Diop (3 goals) and the striker El Idrissy (3 goals). The probable line-ups for Laval - Troyes:

The head-to-head history between Laval and Troyes has been fairly balanced, though Troyes have had the upper hand in recent encounters. Earlier this year, Laval managed a 1-0 win at home, but Troyes responded with victories in previous seasons, including a 3-1 triumph in 2023. The last two months have seen both sides tested by tight fixtures, with Laval often grinding out draws and Troyes showing their ability to score freely. Analysts have pointed out that Laval’s defensive organization could frustrate Troyes, especially given that Laval tend to keep games tight at home. Meanwhile, Troyes’ ability to score in most away matches makes them dangerous, but their occasional lapses at the back could open the door for Laval to snatch something.

Taking all of this into account, the match promises to be a tense affair with contrasting styles on display. Laval will likely aim to slow the game down and rely on defensive solidity, while Troyes will push forward with their attacking momentum. Yet, given Laval’s struggles in front of goal and Troyes’ occasional inconsistency away from home, the most realistic outcome may be a stalemate. Therefore, the prediction for this fixture is a 0-0 correct score, reflecting both Laval’s inability to break down stronger opponents and Troyes’ potential difficulty in finding a breakthrough against a stubborn defense.
