Team News

Saint-Etienne
Angers
  • After last week’s defeat to Marseille, the limitations of Saint-Étienne’s squad against top French teams was evident. Unfortunately, the team lacks the depth and quality to make significant changes ahead of their upcoming fixture.
  • Additionally, Eirik Horneland’s side will still be without their four long-term absentees as Yvann Maçon, Ben Old, Ibrahima Wadji, and Aïmen Moueffek continue their recovery from injuries.
  • Following their convincing victory over Reims last week, it is unlikely that Alexandre Dujeux will make many changes to the squad for the upcoming match.
  • However, Jean-Eudes Aholou is suspended after accumulating too many yellow cards over a 10-match period. Meanwhile, Carlens Arcus, Sidiki Cherif, Bamba Dieng, and Cédric Houtondji remain sidelined due to long-term injuries.

Prediction

  • AS Saint-Étienne welcome Angers SCO to the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard for a crucial Ligue 1 fixture. Saint-Étienne, currently sitting 16th in the standings with just 18 points, are struggling for form, having suffered four losses in their last six matches. Their most recent defeat, a heavy 5-1 loss to Marseille, highlighted the gaps in their squad against top-tier teams. The Greens will be hoping to bounce back.
  • Angers, positioned 11th with 26 points, come into this match with a better recent record, having secured three wins in their last six games. Their latest victory, a 1-0 win over Reims, has provided them with a boost in confidence as they aim to continue climbing the table. However, Angers will also be without key players, with Jean-Eudes Aholou suspended after accumulating too many yellow cards.
  • Historically, the encounters between these two teams have been competitive, with Saint-Étienne winning three of the last five meetings and Angers securing one victory. However, given Saint-Étienne’s current struggles and Angers' solid form, it’s likely that the visitors will come out on top.
