Prediction: 2-1
Lorient
Angers will be aiming to put an end to their four-match winless run when they take on Lorient at Stade Raymond-Kopa in the Ligue 1 round 14. Les Scoistes failed to win the previous four league fixtures, and, no doubt, they are eager to get back on course in the French top flight. Angelo Fulgini serves a one-match ban, while both Abdoulaye Bamba and Zinedine Ould Khaled are sidelined with injuries.
Les Merlus, on the other hand, failed to win the previous six league fixtures. Considering that Lorient are not regarded as good travelers, we predict that Angers are going to pick up all three points from Sunday’s clash. All Fabien Lemoine, Stephane Diarra, Moritz Jenz, and Armand Lauriente remain in the recovery room, while defender Jerome Hergault is banned for the match. In their last meeting at the venue Angers defeated Lorient 2-0.
Highlighted Player (Angelo Fulgini):
Angelo Fulgini is a French footballer who plays for Angers in Ligue as a midfielder. Fulgini played for the likes of AS de Saint-Paul-en-Foret, FC Vidauban, SC Douai and Valenciennes during his youth career and he continued playing for the Athenians at senior level.
After scoring eight goals in 80 appearances for Valenciennes from 2015 to 2017, he moved to Angers before the start of the 2017/2018 Ligue 1 campaign and he quickly established himself as a first-team regular at Stade Raymond-Kopa. Angelo Fulgini scored his first ever goal for les Scoistes on August 6, 2017 in a 2-2 draw with Bordeaux. Despite being born in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, on August 20, 1996, the Angers midfielder represents France on the international stage.
Angelo Fulgini has 3 caps for the France U21 team, while making 15 appearances for the U19 team. His main position is central midfield, but he is uses as both right-back and right midfielder as well. His preferred foot is right.
Highlighted Team (Lorient):
Founded back in 1926, Lorient is a French football club that competes in Ligue 1. Les Merlus have yet to win the Ligue 1 trophy, but they did well to go all the way in the Coupe de France in the 2001/02 season. In the title game, Lorient defeated Bastia thanks to Jean-Claude Darcheville’s goal.
The same season les Merlus made it to the Coupe de la Ligue final, but Bordeaux proved to be a big catch (0-3) for them in the title game. Lorient welcome their rivals at Stade du Moustoir, the stadium which can hold up to 16,392 spectators. The colour of the team’s home shirt is orange with a little black on it, while white is the dominant colour of their away jersey. In the 2002/03 season Lorient represented France in European competitions.
Les Merlus, though, failed to impress on their debut in the UEFA Cup as they were beaten by Denizlispor in the round 1 double-header.
