According to Le-chatilier principle.
If moles of reactant < moles of product ------> forward rxn and vice versa.
Here n of reactant is lesser so forward rxn.
If moles of reactant < moles of product ------> forward rxn and vice versa.
Here n of reactant is lesser so forward rxn.

@All.
Since the mole of reactants (2) is more than the mole of the product (1), decreasing the pressure will favour the increase of the dissociation of the product.
