St Malo 0:0 Bastia — Match Report

St Malo enter the match with markedly better recent form, having gone three games unbeaten with two wins in that stretch. Bastia have lost two of their last three away matches, showing defensive frailties that could be exposed. The form advantage clearly lies with the home side.

St Malo have scored in four of their last five games, while Bastia have netted in four of five as well, suggesting both sides are capable of finding the net. However, Bastia's away defensive record may tighten up, and the match could become cagey. A low-scoring affair or one team controlling the pace is possible.
