The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Troyes are in the 7th position while the guests worry at 15th.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Troyes form and stats

Troyes have played three Ligue 2 home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.

A good away victory last time out for Troyes, who won 1-0 against Chateauroux (placed 19th). Ahead of that match, Troyes won a home game hosting Lens (2-0).

Troyes has scored 4 league goals at home this season, in 3 matches. Troyes have conceded 4 in these home matches.

Caen form and stats

Things could have gone better for Caen in their Ligue 2 away matches, but 5 points from 3 games is all right.

The manager F. Mercadal was unhappy after their last game, a Ligue 2 match played at their home ground Stade de l'Aube. Caen suffered a 0-3 loss to Le Havre (placed 1st). Before that, Caen travelled to Niort and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.

Caen find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 3 goals from 3 away fixtures in the league. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (2 so far).

Head 2 Head

Troyes-Caen H2H statistics last seven meetings regardless of arena: Troyes 3 wins, Caen 3 wins, 1 draw. 5 of these seven matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
