Caen hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 17 points and a 14th position in the Ligue 2 table. Visiting Nancy holds 8th place with 23 pts.
It's no vacation for neither Caen nor Nancy as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Caen form and stats
With {1 Ligue 2 wins}, 4 draws and 3 defeats from their home games, Caen are certainly not brimming with confidence. The last three games played by Caen, regardless of arena, have all ended draws.
The home team returns to Stade Michel d'Ornano after sharing the points with Guingamp (placed 10th) on their last time out; the Ligue 2 game ended 1-1. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Le Mans that ended 3-3.
Caen have scored 7 league goals here from 8 matches, not a lot. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 12 goals have been conceded.
Nancy form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Nancy so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 0-6-1 (win-draw-lose). In general it has been a productive period now for Nancy as they haven't lost any of their last eleven games. It's been quite a sequence of draws for Nancy when traveling as their last five away games have all ended all square. Not since the Sochaux match has the points been distributed unevenly.
Nancy are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the Ligue 2 against Paris (placed 18th). Before that, Nancy travelled to Grenoble Foot 38 and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Nancy as they have only managed to score 6 times from 7 away games in the league. Nancy have conceded 9 goals in these away matches.
Head 2 Head
As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's 1 Caen victory, 2 draws and 7 Nancy wins. 4 of these games ended with three goals or more, 6 matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
