Analysis Saint-Étienne

The home team is currently in the 16th position of the league, with 30 points won, after 7 wins, 9 draws and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Reims, by (1‑1). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Lorient, by (2‑1).

For the league, Saint‑Étienne won 9 points out of 30 possible points, after 1 win, 6 draws and 3 losses in the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches for this competition there is a tendency for few goals, since 9 of the last 13 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 27 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 12 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Saint-Étienne comes to this clash unmotivated after a 2-1 loss at Lorient, putting an end to the five consecutive games without losing in this competition: the only goal of the team was signed by Harold Moukoudi. Despite being a team that likes to play in its midfield, it can also easily go out on the counterattack. Right-winger Denis Bouanga is the highlight of this Saint-Étienne, with 4 goals and 3 assists. The home coach will not be able to count on Wahbi Khazri, Romain Hamouma, Alpha Sissoko, Panagiotis Retsos and Yvann Macon, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Jessy Moulin, Pape Abou Cissé, Mathieu Debuchy, Timothée Kolodziejczak, Harold Moukoudi, Arnaud Nordin, Adil Aouchiche, Lucas Gourna Douath, Mahdi Camara, Kévin Monnet-Paquet, Charles Abi.

Analysis Lens

The away team is currently in the 6th position of the league, with 41 points won, after 11 wins, 8 draws and 8 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Dijon, by (2‑1). In the last match, they tied in an away match against Angers SCO, by (2‑2). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 24 goals scored and 21 conceded; against 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 21 goals scored and 20 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Lens has a record of 5 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 18 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (5 out of 14 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 12 of the last 14 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 27 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 12 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Lens comes to this game with a 1-1 draw at Angers, registering in this way the excellent series of six consecutive games without losing in this Ligue 1: the only goal of the team was signed by Arnaud Kalimuendo and Jonathan Clauss. The greatest quality of the away team resides in the capacity that it demonstrates in conducting its offensive attacks through the fast transitions. Midfielder Gaël Kakuta is the player responsible for putting the opponent's defensive in a sense, this being Lens's top scorer, with 9 goals scored. Coach Franck Haise cannot count on Issiaga Sylla and Ignatius Ganago, both with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Jean-Louis Leca, Massadio Haïdara, Jonathan Gradit, Jonathan Clauss, Loic Bade, Facundo Medina, Seko Fofana, Yannick Cahuzac, Tony Mauricio, Arnaud Muinga, Florian Sotoca.
