Big Test for Belfort as Thonon Évian Come to Town

This Saturday, Stade Roger-Serzian will be electric as Belfort host Thonon Évian in a crucial National 3 - Group F clash. The home team are in for a tough afternoon as they face off against one of the division’s top sides.

Belfort have been struggling to find their rhythm, and their recent form suggests they might be in for a long day. On the other hand, Thonon Évian have been on fire, with their attacking prowess and solid defense making them a force to be reckoned with.

The visitors are likely to dominate possession, using their pacey wingers to stretch Belfort’s defense. The home team will need to be clever with their tactics, possibly looking to catch Thonon Évian on the counter-attack. However, with the away side’s expected goals band sitting at -2.5, it’s clear they have the firepower to hurt Belfort.

The stats don’t make for good reading for the home fans, with Belfort given just a 10% chance of winning. A draw is a more likely outcome, but even that seems like a stretch given Thonon Évian’s recent performances. The smart money is on a double chance bet - either a draw or an away win.

As the two teams take to the pitch at 17:00 GMT, the atmosphere will be tense. Belfort need a big performance to get something from this game, but it’s hard to see them stopping Thonon Évian’s march. Will the home team be able to pull off a shock, or will the visitors prove too strong? One thing’s for sure - it’ll be an exciting 90 minutes at Stade Roger-Serzian.
