Head-to-head statistics Annecy - Dijon
Annecy Team Overview
After six rounds, Laurent Guillot's Annecy have 10 points, though it could have been more. Both of their defeats came from winning positions: first at Reims, then last round. At Guingamp, Thibaut Rambo put Annecy ahead as early as the 14th minute, but after the hour mark the team conceded twice in four minutes and lost 1-2. Guillot put these setbacks down to the youth of his squad. Youth is not only a drawback, though. Nineteen-year-old midfielder Mohamed Koné has been one of the finds of the opening weeks, starting in each of the first five rounds.

Dijon FCO Team Overview
Dijon are back in Ligue 2 after three years in the Nationale, which they won last season. Baptiste Ridira has been in charge since 2024 and led the club up to the second division himself. The early weeks of the season were difficult: going into round six, Dijon were bottom of the table. Ridira admitted at the time that he was "almost ashamed". The team picked up their first win of the season only in the previous round, grinding out a 3-2 victory over Laval. The manager himself described that game as far from their best: Laval created chance after chance, while Dijon converted all three of their shots on target. On the same day, midfielder Brandon Ndezi received his first call-up to the DR Congo national team. This will not affect the match against Annecy, as the international break does not begin until 21 September.

Risky Bet
More than one goal has been scored in 9 of Annecy's last 10 matches. The average scoring across both teams' recent games is also above two goals per match. The bar here is noticeably higher than the usual figures, though: the bet wins with four goals, and three returns the stake. The risk is that the averages fall short of that mark. But if the game opens up, four goals are perfectly realistic. The bet is Total Goals - Over 3.
Reliable Bet
Annecy have scored more than two goals at home in just 1 of their last 15 matches. Their home scoring averages tell the same story: 1.5 goals per game overall and 2.25 across their last ten home matches. Even on that more recent run, they are still falling short of three goals. The odds here are modest, but this is a familiar pattern for the hosts. The bet is Annecy Team Total - Under 2.5.
Correct Score Prediction

⭐ Editor's Prediction
Annecy have scored in 15 of their last 16 home matches. Dijon will find it hard to stop that run: the newly promoted side have conceded in nine consecutive games. The visitors are equally consistent at the other end, having scored in ten consecutive away matches. Both teams scored in 8 of Dijon's last 9 matches. We don't expect either goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet. Our bet is Both Teams to Score - Yes. Predicted score: 1-1.
