Their only shine for this season na di small light wey dem catch when dem win Paris FC 1-0 for di opening day. Since then, na wetin we no fit see again o, with three draws and four losses.

Na dem who dem dey call ‘The Mermaids’, but no be dem dey swim pass o, as dem don concede 19 goals this season! Na wah!
For dis match, Angers go miss Jim Allevinah wey dey recuperate from calf injury. Lorient self dey jam injury wahala as Nathaniel Adjei dey manage ankle injury and some other players dey doubtful. People go dey cross fingers say dem no wan miss any chance to show say dem fit shine!
As dem dey come enter dis match, Angers fit draw strength from dem last friendly where dem beat Lorient 1-0 back in August, but this na different ball game. If Angers fit win dis match, dem go jump go out of relegation zone, provided say other results dey favor dem.
