Sunday sees Ajaccio take on Lorient in a Ligue 1 game at the Stade Francois Coty.

Newly-promoted Ajaccio have found life in Ligue 1 pretty hard thus far into the 2022-23 campaign, as they are currently propping up the table having lost four of their opening five fixtures and drawn the other.

Most notably, they’ve found goals hard to come by, scoring just three, as their lone point was captured in a 0-0 draw with Lens.

Lorient, meanwhile, are currently sitting in seventh place despite playing one less game than most of the other Ligue 1 sides due to their match with Lyon being postponed due to an unacceptable playing surface.

They did suffer a bad loss in their midweek game against Lens, falling to a 5-2 defeat, but prior to that they’d won two games and drawn one, giving them a pretty impressive start to the season.

Ajaccio vs Lorient Prediction

Given Ajaccio’s poor form and winless run, it’s likely that this match will prove to be a very tricky one for them.

Put simply, it looks like many of their players are currently out of their depth in Ligue 1, and while Lorient are not the best side in the competition, they’re more than capable of scoring goals and defeating teams.

Therefore, we expect an away win in this game.
