Bastia vs. Grenoble: match preview
Both teams are close in the standings and are fighting for a playoff spot. Bastia leads Grenoble by four points, occupying eighth place with 44 points after 31 rounds. They are just four points shy of the fifth spot, which offers a chance for promotion, with three rounds to go. However, the team’s form is inconsistent: two wins, two losses, and a draw in their last five matches.
Grenoble is also experiencing a rough patch. They have won only once in their last eight matches. They have a total of 40 points — four less than Bastia and eight behind the fifth-placed team. To maintain their chances, they need to win all remaining matches and hope for their rivals to falter.

Prediction
Grenoble is in weaker form, while Bastia has strong motivation and plays on their home turf. The hosts have a better chance of success — my pick: Bastia to win with odds of 1.61.
