Guingamp form and stats

When playing at home in the Ligue 2, Guingamp, who have the fewest clean sheets (0) at home in Ligue 2, have managed 2 wins, 2 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 7 games.

Guingamp's previous game was a Coupe de France match also played at home, ending 1-0 versus Stade Briochin. The home side are looking to build on that result.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Pau (0-2).

This is expected to be a close game, with Guingamp perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Guingamp as a small favourite), we find eight games. Guingamp has won two of these, drawn three and lost three.

The Guingamp fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 10 in 7 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Guingamp defense is not exactly impregnable. 11 goals conceded from 7 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Dijon form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Dijon so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 2-0-5 (win-draw-lose).

Two travels in a row for Dijon, whose manager P. Garande could celebrate last time after the Coupe de France win against Morteau Montlebon.

A home win before that, celebrating 3-1 vs Auxerre.

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

The attacking power of Dijon when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 7 league matches away. Dijon have conceded 10 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Guingamp-Dijon H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Guingamp four wins, Dijon four wins, two draws. five of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
