You got a look at the updated Ligue 2 ITB stats yesterday and I wanted to show you how they were used and applied to last night's games (see below). Results don't really matter, one day, one week, even one month is VERY short term, but PFC finished 2-3, Caen 4-3, Orleans 1-2, those selections made a +59.7% profit, but we also unlucky IMO with the three teams we sided with leading six times between them and Orleans and Niort a combined +3 in terms of BC (Big changes created) !

 

 

 

I have just sent out today's subscriber newsletter in which I updated ITB stats for Ligue 2 and previewed seven games total from the FA Cup and top two leagues in France and you can read the former below.................

 

 

Ligue 2: ITB stats through 22 rounds

 

 

 

 

 

I posted the following on New Year's Eve...............

 

Ligue 2: 19 rounds played.

 

 

 

 

 

Important match up between two of the bigger Ligue 2 teams, both of whom could move into 6th with the win.

 

They will each have to get out of a bit of a draw mindset to claim all three points , with Le Havre without a win in six (four draws) and Nancy having lost just once all season, but their record of 3-8-1 could be so much better.

 

 

 

 

 

Wow ! Five goals in eight Ligue 2 games last Friday, that is no good to anyone and I felt like I had been transported back in time , we were robbed of a couple of winners IMO and hopefully that will be addressed and normal service resumed this evening, as a minimum some excitement and a few goals would be nice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ahead of tomorrow's games, below is the league table in order, figures alongside each team are attempts from inside the box, minus those given up, so Lorient have created 39 , allowed 42, therefore -3.

 

Seven games is not much, but only Orleans in the real bottom half of the table have a + ITB diffence and only at +1 so that looks a true reflection on those 10, so, therefore, why should there not be at least some credence in the numbers at the other end ?
