REF’s picks

Sochaux hold a slight home edge here against an Annecy side that has struggled for consistency on the road, making the quarter-ball handicap a solid entry. The hosts have drawn plenty of matches lately and lack a clinical edge, meaning a tight affair is entirely possible.

1. 1Sochaux play at Stade Bonal where they generally control proceedings and find defensive stability.
2. 2Annecy have scored in numerous consecutive matches, posing a genuine threat to breach the home backline.
3. 3Sochaux's tendency to turn winning positions into draws means a single-goal margin might only half-win rather than clear cleanly.
