Saint-Étienne and Nantes have met several times in the past few years, and most of those games ended without a winner. In the last six meetings, four were draws. This time it's different because Saint-Étienne are top of the table, while Nantes are still stuck in the lower middle of the table. Saint-Étienne are on a winning run and have just closed it out with a 1-0 win; defensively they have conceded very few goals in their league matches. Nantes, meanwhile, lost 2-3 in their last match and have lost several of their league matches, scoring only a handful of goals. This game is likely to start with Saint-Étienne dominating possession and pushing high up the pitch, while Nantes sit back and wait to counter. The first half may not be completely one-sided, but in the second half the home side, with options in midfield, should control the tempo more and have a chance to edge a goal from that advantage.
