Saint-Etienne are suffering a setback as the team lost two matches in a row. First, they were beaten by Nancy in the League Cup match, 0-1, and that loss was followed by 1-2 defeat to league lowly Lorient. So, that last defeat moved the team down on ninth position in the league with 25 points gained and 18-16 aggregate goal difference. Saint-Etienne rarely lose at home, allowing only one defeat in nine home fixtures of the season with four wins and four draws recorded.

Nancy lost one of their last seven matches staring the middle of November, recording four wins and two draws in these matches. Such successful run of results allowed the team to move up to 14th place with 20 points gained and 15-23 aggregate goal difference. At the same time, the team has awful away record with only one wins in nine games on the road with seven points gained and four goals score and 14 allowed.
Saint-Etienne are successful in matches with Nancy and recent League Cup defeat should motivate the hosting side in upcoming match. We can expect the hosts to take a victory over the team that struggles on the road this season.
Prediction for the match: Saint-Etienne to win.
