Dijon host Rodez in Ligue 2, with the home side sitting 9th and the visitors 17th and in need of points to pull away from the lower zone. Both played their most recent match not long ago, so this one will be decided more by readiness and composure than by reputation. This season Dijon have scored 16 and conceded 16 in 9 matches, showing a balance between attack and defence, but in their last five they have just lost 2-4 at home and the defence is starting to show cracks. Rodez, meanwhile, have scored 14 and conceded 21 in 9 matches, numbers that make their defensive problems clear, and in their last two matches they lost back to back without scoring at all. This game should be an open exchange in midfield. Dijon will see more of the ball and push high, while Rodez, if they defend as a block and wait for the counter, have a chance to make the hosts concede late in the game as has happened before. The game is more likely to end close than for either side to blow the other away.
