Dijon Preview – Can Dijon steer clear of relegation again?
Although Dijon were sitting in the lowly position of 16th on the Ligue 1 standings when last season’s campaign was brought to a halt, they possessed a comfortable seven-point cushion above the relegation zone and the hosts will be hoping they can steer clear of trouble again this term.
There were two sides to Dijon last season as they suffered just two defeats on home turf at their Stade Gaston-Gérard while managing to pick up just the one away win all season on their travels, and no doubt they’ll be relying on their solid form at home again this season.
Dijon ended the season with just one win from their final six matches and have started the new season in miserable fashion, losing early back-to-back matches against Angers and Lyon, but having lost just one of their last 13 matches at home (which includes six draws), Dijon will be reasonably confident of avoiding a third straight defeat on Sunday.
Brest Preview – Can Brest achieve top half finish?
Well, if Brest are to do so they need to vastly improve their results away from home as the visitors fared only marginally better than their Sunday’s hosts, Dijon, as they finished in 14th place and four points above the home side when last season was brought to a close.
Brest managed just one win from their final seven matches of last term and they too have suffered back-to-back defeats at the start of this new campaign having lost to Nimes 4-0 away and a 3-2 loss at home to Marseille, while the visitors picked up just two away wins throughout last season.
The bigger picture shows that Brest have won just two of their last 20 matches on their travels in Ligue 1 and they’ve failed to score in 11 of these so this could be a low-scoring affair with neither team willing to lose a third match on the trot.
