REF’s picks

We are backing Over 2.5 goals in this Ligue 2 encounter between USL Dunkerque and FC Annecy, as both sides have shown vulnerabilities in defence recently and tend to engage in open matches. Annecy's recent fixtures have been particularly high-scoring, and despite Dunkerque's low scoring output in some outings, the visitors' attacking intent should force an open game.

1. 1FC Annecy's last few matches have frequently featured multiple goals, pointing towards a leaky defensive setup.
2. 2USL Dunkerque desperate for points at home should create a more expansive tactical approach.
3. 3Dunkerque's recent heavy defeats and lack of clean sheets mean they could easily concede multiple times here.
