Guingamp vs Bastia
French Ligue 1
Date: Saturday, 11th March, 2017
Kick off at 19:00 UK Time
Venue: Stade de Roudourou, Guingamp.
Guingamp’s fall from grace continues as last weekend they drew away to Montpellier which was on reflection a decent result. The problem for Guingamp is that they haven’t claimed a win since February 11th when they overcame Lyon of all teams. But now Guingamp are in 11th place and in no man’s land.
Because of their great start to the campaign Guingamp shouldn’t get pulled into a relegation dog fight but fans are still asking where has the fight gone? At home they have lost 2 of their last three matches and have won only once in their last 4 games.
Bastia are 19th and heading to Ligue 2 for next season, but there have been some bright sparks recently. This has included no wins but three draws from their last four matches and Bastia do look up for the fight.
However away from home they have lost their last 4 matches conceding 10 goals and have not won on the road since early December.

Guingamp vs Bastia: Prediction
This should be the game to re start Guingamp’s poor form where they are clearly the better side. They overwhelmingly need 3 point and to get a win in front of their home fans that will give the squad the belief for the rest of the season, and we will go for a home win.
