Dijon's goal timing numbers make it clear this match will be decided late: they score 25% of their total goals in the 76-90 minute period and concede 35% of their total goals in the same period. Meanwhile, Saint-Étienne spreads danger throughout the game, but the 31-45 minute period is their most prolific (21%), and their last 5 matches are a winning run with scores of 4-0, 3-1, 3-0, 4-3, 4-0 — scoring 18 goals in total and conceding only 4. In this match, Saint-Étienne should dominate possession and attack Dijon, who have yet to win anyone this season (2 draws, 1 loss, 2 scored, 3 conceded). The first thing to watch after kickoff is whether Dijon's defense can handle the pace of Saint-Étienne's attack in the first 15 minutes, because if they concede early, the game will open up and end as the numbers predict.
