Caen will welcome Niort to Stade Michel d’Ornano for a matchday 20 fixture in France Ligue 2. The last meeting on 31st July 2021 ended in a Caen 1-0 win. Both sides have met nine times in the most recent seasons. Caen has won 4 matches, and Niort triumphed in 3. Recent outings average 2.22 goals, while both teams score 33% of the time.
Caen’s last game in the France Ligue 2 against Ajaccio at home ended in a 2-0 win. Although Caen played less with the ball than their opponent, it was enough to get the result they were hoping for. Caen was dangerous in both halves and scored in the 65th and 90th minute.
Niort’s recent game against Pau ended in a home 3-0 win. Les Chamois dominated the game and deserved the win. Niort pushed forward in the second half and scored in the 48th, 73rd and 81st minute.
So far, Caen plays better on the road than at home. They win 1.20 points per away game on average compared to 1.18 points at home. Caen’s good defensive display is key to their success. They didn’t concede in 36% of home games.
Niort has picked up 10 points from the previous six league games. They still have a lot to prove when playing away from home. Niort wins 1.20 points per away game, a bit less than their home record shows. To improve results, they have to be more compact in defence. Niort kept a clean sheet in just 30% of their visits.
It is not a surprise that the hosts stand out as a favourite to win this one. Recently they enjoy playing at home, having won two consecutive matches. Caen is currently unbeaten at home in two games. Since the start of the season, they have just six home defeats.
Les Chamois failed to win in two consecutive away games. It will be a big surprise to turn up on Friday and win against Caen.
I am confident that the hosts will prove their worth and triumph with another home victory. Caen wins on average 1.18 points per home game, compared to 1.20 points per away game for Niort. My prediction is Caen to win.
Lately, there are not that many high-scoring games for both sides. I am confident that the tendency will keep going and at least one team will keep a clean sheet. A bet that both sides will score wins in an average of 38% of Caen’s home and Niort’s away games. My prediction is Both Teams to Score: No.
