Angers SCO and Troyes meet in Ligue 1 at Stade Raymond Kopa in clearly contrasting form. The hosts closed out their last match with a 0-0 draw, while the visitors have just lost 0-2 for a second match in a row. Angers SCO have not won in two matches, but they did not lose their latest one either. Their attack has not scored much in the league, especially in matches against opponents who defend in an organised block. Troyes have it tougher in that they have lost two in a row and their defence conceded a fair amount in the latest match, though low-scoring finishes are still a common sight in their form. According to the expected line-ups, Angers SCO are likely to set up in a 4-2-3-1 with Amine El Ouazzani as the lone striker and Branco van den Boomen and Yassin Belkhdim controlling the tempo in midfield. Troyes are also expected to use the same shape with Jeremy Le Douaron as the lone striker. This game is likely to see the hosts having to open up and attack, while the visitors sit back for counter-attacking moments and defend more tightly than before.
