Who will win the Châteauroux vs Villefranche match?

Villefranche are the slight favourites according to CheckLive's analysis, with a 57% probability based on their superior head-to-head record and better recent form. Châteauroux's winless home run and lack of confidence make them vulnerable, though a draw is a plausible outcome given the tight nature of past meetings.

Will there be over 2.5 goals in this match?
