Monaco vs Bastia Betting Tips

Monaco claimed what they might consider to be their rightful second place in the table behind PSG, but they didn’t play much like that kind of team at the weekend, suffering a 3-0 thrashing at the hands of Angers. It was a disappointing follow up to a 2-0 win over Lorient and a 4-0 crushing of Toulouse.

There’s an inconsistency about this Monaco club and with a cluttered table from 12th to 2nd, there’s no feeling or true confidence that they’ll string together two successful results. However, there’s a good chance that Monaco are eyeing up a bounce back effort after their poor display against Angers.

Bastia have edged back up the table after picking up wins in two of their last three games, a pair of 1-0 wins over Montpellier and Lyon. The team appears to have recovered from a first half of the season, where they didn’t defend effectively.

Three Reasons for Betting Tips

1. Monaco intensity

We’re confident that this Monaco side, and their improved attacking showings will come hard at this game against Bastia. They’ll find a way to score some goals in this game.

2. Bastia’s defence

We’re still not completely confident that Bastia has become a quality defensive team, they’ll be tested on this trip and perhaps exposed.

3. Good odds

Better than even odds on the Over 2.5 Goals market presents an excellent betting opportunity.
