At home, they score 1.20 goals per match but concede 2.00. A 2-6 defeat to Dunkerque recently shows their defense can be stretched. Annecy, sitting 8th with 49 points, shows stronger form. In their last 10, they average 1.70 points per game, scoring 1.80 and conceding 1.40. Away from home, Annecy scores 1.80 goals per game while conceding 2.00. Their recent away wins include 5-1 against Pau and 5-1 against Nancy, proving their attack is firing on all cylinders.

Head-to-head history favors the visitors. In 5 meetings, Boulogne has 0 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses. They average just 0.40 goals scored and 1.80 conceded against Annecy. The last meeting ended 1-1. Yet, the current goal expectancy tells a different story. With Boulogne expected to score 1.60 goals and Annecy 1.90, the combined expectation reaches 3.50 goals. This mathematical signal, paired with Annecy's potent away attack and Boulogne's leaky home defense, points strongly toward goals.

Odds for Over 2.5 Goals stand at 2.27. The market implies a 44% chance, but the statistical expectancy suggests a much higher probability of success. Multiple signals confirm this: Annecy's away scoring rate of 1.80, Boulogne's home conceding rate of 2.00, and the recent 5-1 and 5-1 victories for the visitors. Fatigue is minimal for both sides, with 5 and 8 days of rest respectively. The trend for Annecy shows improving goals scored and points, while Boulogne's points trend is declining.

Key Points:

• Annecy averages 1.80 goals scored and 2.00 conceded in away fixtures.
