Dijon form and stats

The Ligue 2 statistics at home this season for Dijon are 8-2-7 (wins-draws-losses).

No payout for Dijon in their previous match, an away game at Auxerre that ended in defeat 1-2. Midfield player Pi got a match rating of 7.4 in that game, the max score being 10. Pi hit one key pass.

Preceding that match was the home game against Ajaccio that was lost 0-3.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Dijon have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found five matches with the results: Won two, drawn two and lost one.

Guingamp form and stats

As the visiting team in Ligue 2 matches, Guingamp have produced an overall stat of 5-6-6 so far. Guingamp love their trips these days, as their two previous away games have resulted in victories.

Guingamp won their last game, 3-0 versus Pau played at home. Midfield player Gomis was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.45/10. Gomis scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes and had 25 successful passes (of 30 total).

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Bastia at their stadium, the result 2-1.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Guingamp playing away and similar expectations, we found twelve relevant matches. Results were three Guingamp wins, five draws and four defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Guingamp as they have only managed to score 15 times from 17 away games in the league.

There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
