Hoping to widen their buffer at the top of the Ligue 2 standings on Monday night, Troyes will travel to the Parc des Sports when they meet Annecy.

Starting with the hosts, watching their extended purple patch come to a thumping end last time out, Annecy will be seeking an immediate response here. Eventually falling to a 3-0 loss at the hands of Le Mans, Laurent Guyot’s side will be desperate to get their play-off charge back on track. Knowing that they can move within touching distance of the top-five here, the Reds have lost just one of their previous eight Ligue 2 appearances – a run that stems back to a 2-1 defeat against Reims on January 3rd. Despite facing what will be a tricky test here, Annecy will be excited by their extended success on home soil. Last seen at the Parc des Sports securing a 2-1 victory against Red Star on February 20th, Monday’s hosts have registered 10 points from their last four Ligue 2 showdowns in front of their own supporters. However, it should be noted, Guyot’s men have failed to record a single home clean sheet since back on November 21st.

As for the visitors, embarking on what has been a sensational Ligue 2 romp this season, Troyes have rightfully received a string of plaudits. With their sights set on securing an iconic top-flight return in 2026, Stephane Dumont’s side find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high. Last seen securing a 2-1 victory against Clermont, the Blues are leading the chase at the top of the table and they will be looking to make another title statement on Monday night. Signing off February with an action-packed 4-3 win at home against Pau FC, Troyes have won their previous three appearances by an aggregate score of 8-3. Finding a real clinical edge in the final third. Dumont’s men have notched 42 Ligue 2 strikes this season and hold the second-best attacking tally in the division. It should also be noted, Monday’s guests clinched a thumping 3-1 victory when they welcomed Annecy to town for their reverse meeting on September 26th.

Bet: Over 1.5 goals at Annecy vs Troyes 2/5 for Monday’s Ligue 2 battle @ 1xBet
