Goal Statistics

St Etienne's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday evening, not least because Troyes have conceded in each of their last 5 Ligue 2 outings. A PG of 1.7 for E. Horneland's side suggests that run should continue.

St Etienne's defensive record is to be admired, E. Horneland's men having conceded 1 or less in 13 consecutive Ligue 2 games. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.0 for Troyes makes sense in this context.
