Sangaré scored one goal, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.

A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Rodez.

Dijon form and stats

Dijon have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Ligue 2, after 1-3-10 (14 played). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Dijon have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone twelve consecutive matches without winning on the road.

Impressive finishing from Bihan secured the home win 1-0 against Rodez in their previous game. That victory felt sweet as this side had gone three league rounds without winning. Midfield player Silva was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.65/10. Silva hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 5 of 7 times.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Caen wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

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 14 relevant matches. Results were 3 Dijon wins, 4 draws and 7 defeats.

Few goals the story here? 8 of this side's most recent 10 league rounds have seen zero, one or two goals.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Dijon as they have only managed to score 10 times from 14 away games in the league. Dijon's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 21 goals from these trips.
