Our Predictions
St Etienne are 2nd with 20 points and in strong form at home. Bookmakers give them strong favor (1.55 odds), reflecting both their league position and goal threat from Davitashvili and Stassin.
Five of Le Mans’s last six games have finished under 2.5 goals. Both teams are solid defensively, and a cagey affair is likely. Odds of 1.99 suggest a close contest with few goals.
Le Mans often struggle to score—especially away from home—while St Etienne’s defense is tight. Odds at 1.90 indicate a strong probability only one team finds the net.

Extratips welcomes you to the St Etienne vs Le Mans Prediction (Ligue 2)
It’s matchday 10 in Ligue 2 as St Etienne (2nd, 20 pts) take on Le Mans (11th, 10 pts) this Saturday at 18:00. Both sides are eager for points, but St Etienne, fighting for promotion, come in as clear favorites. The top bookmakers highlight this with odds like 1.55 for a home win, 4.05 for a draw, and 5.35 for an away upset.
Recent league form points to St Etienne’s consistent strength at home, while Le Mans struggle on the road. The teams haven’t faced each other much in recent times, but St Etienne’s attacking players, like Davitashvili and Stassin, are in good shape with 4 goals each from 8 matches. Le Mans, meanwhile, find scoring tough—five of their last six games have ended under 2.5 goals.
With St Etienne pushing for promotion, expect them to start fast and control play. But Le Mans will defend deep, making this less likely to become a goal-fest. Key players appear fit, which sets up a classic offense-versus-defense showdown.
Storylines to watch: Will St Etienne’s firepower break through Le Mans’s low block? Can Le Mans spring a surprise counter-attack? Will pressure at the sharp end of the table get to the home side?
Everything points to St Etienne’s strength at home being too much for Le Mans, though a tight game could keep the score modest.
