Guingamp form and stats

When playing at home in the Ligue 2, Guingamp have managed 3 wins, 5 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 11 games.

The fans are hoping that Guingamp will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Ligue 2 game against Orléans (placed 20th). Before that, Guingamp drew at home versus Lens.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Guingamp as they are travelling to their away game against Valenciennes in the Ligue 2. That match is four days after this one.

The attacking power of Auxerre when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 10 league matches away. As opposed to that, Auxerre have seen the ball go into their own net 11 times on the road.
