Caen welcome the visitors Saint-Etienne in the French Ligue 1 – Round 29. The match will be held on Saturday, March, 16th, at the Stade Michel d’Ornano (Caen).
The hosting Caen presently run second-last in the Ligue 1 standings, running ahead of Guingamp only who feature a horrible season. Of ten latest fixtures, Caen conceded seven. They sit seven points below Monaco, so, survival will be very challenging. The team are extremely bad at home lately – of five recent encounters on their soil, they lost four and attained a sole draw in the clash with Strasbourg. In the first-term match against Saint-Etienne, Caen were ahead in the first half-time, 1:0, but the opponents had a serious advantage in the second half and managed to convert it.

The traveling ‘Les Verts’ are currently sixth in the table. They were defeated in three of four latest encounters, which somehow worsened their placement. Saint-Etienne are four points below the European places now, so, they need to psych up and increase their tally in the coming outing against Caen. Three losses in four rounds is not a great record indeed, but mind the defeats were registered against Paris Saint-Germain, Marseille, and Lille, the top-three sides in the standings. By all means, after a number of fails, the guests on the day will be very determined, and they are in urgent need of points these days.
In our view, Saint-Etienne will manage to win and gain the crucial three points on Saturday. Caen have blatantly failed the season, and they have nothing to count on this campaign. We’re betting on the guests’ win tomorrow.
Prediction for the match: Saint-Etienne to win away.
