Troyes Look Capable of Avoiding Defeat at Home
Estac Troyes sit two places below Le Mans after eight games but both sides share similar points totals and patchy recent results. Troyes collected two draws from their last five matches while Le Mans recorded just one win in the same period. At home Troyes have kept two clean sheets this season even though they concede an average of 2.8 goals per home game. Le Mans have not kept a single clean sheet across their eight league outings and they average only 1.3 goals scored on the road. In the last seven head-to-head games Troyes secured two wins and two draws against Le Mans. Both teams have produced low-scoring affairs on average this campaign with Troyes managing just 0.8 goals per home match. The contest may turn on whether Le Mans can find a way past Troyes while avoiding another blank sheet themselves.
