Competition: Ligue 2
Market: Amiens draw no bet
Odds: 2/3 @ BetUS
Looking to extend on their bright start to proceedings on Friday night, Amiens will welcome Annecy to the Stade de la Licorne.
Starting with the hosts, left frustrated last season as they eventually had to settle for a downbeat bottom-half finish, Amiens are seeking some crucial stability this time around. Despite getting the 2025/26 campaign underway with a frantic 2-2 stalemate against Reims on August 11th, Omar Duf̢۪s side came roaring back last time out. Putting in what was a dominant performance as they cruised their way to a 3-1 romp away at Red Star, the Unicorns will be desperately seeking a repeat display here. Putting four points on the board from their opening two Ligue 2 showdowns, the former Dijon boss could be smelling another potential opportunity this weekend. Excited to make a return to the Stade de la Licorne on Friday night, Amiens could be dreaming of the chance to mount a genuine promotion charge this year. It should also be highlighted, Daf̢۪s camp won all of their final four consecutive Ligue 2 showdowns in front of their own supporters last season by an aggregate score of 10-5.
As for the visitors, suffering real heartbreak last season as they eventually missed out on booking a play-off ticket, Annecy are desperate to go one-step further this time around. However, getting proceedings underway with a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Pau on August 9th, Laurent Guyot̢۪s side have shown some extended issues on either side of opening the 2025/26 campaign. Signing off their summer preparations with a 1-0 loss against Clermont, the Reds lost all of their final four friendly appearances by an aggregate score of 9-3. Recording consecutive Ligue 2 wins on just a single occasion so far this calendar year, Annecy look set for what should be another stern challenge this weekend. It should also be noted, Guyot̢۪s side gained a reputation for their glaring issues on the road. Including a 3-2 defeat against Clermont on May 2nd, Friday̢۪s guests lost four of their final five second-tier showdowns away from the Parc des Sports.
