Match preview: Grenoble vs Lorient
Grenoble and Lorient will clash at Stade Des Alpes, as part of the 28th round of Ligue 2. In their previous encounter within this league on 24 August 2024, Lorient won 2-0 at home. The home versus away performance merits attention, as although this match features teams standing 9th and 1st respectively in the overall table, it effectively showcases a contest between the 5th best team at home and the 6th best team away.
Team analysis: Grenoble
Currently sitting in 9th place with 37 points from 10 wins, 7 draws, and 10 losses, Grenoble’s recent form includes a 2-2 draw at home against Ajaccio in their penultimate fixture and a goalless draw away to Clermont in their last match. They have amassed 26 points at home, scoring 20 goals and conceding 12, in contrast to just 11 points earned away, where they scored 12 goals but conceded 19. In their last 10 home matches, Grenoble has recorded 4 wins, 4 draws, and 2 losses, accruing 16 points out of a possible 30. The most common scoreline at halftime when playing at home has been 0-0, occurring in 7 of their 14 matches. Out of 27 league matches, they have conceded the first goal in 11 instances, managing to turn the match around only twice.
The run of four matches without a win in Ligue 2 has been a concern for Grenoble’s coaching staff, who recognise the need for a more solid performance during this challenging timeframe. Aiming to break this disappointing streak, it’s vital for the team to adopt a more attacking style in this tough fixture against Lorient, who currently lead the table. This match presents a crucial opportunity to achieve a result that could reignite morale for the remaining season.
Team analysis: Lorient
The away side presently holds the top position with 55 points from 17 wins, 4 draws, and 6 losses. Their recent fixtures include a 3-2 loss away to Paris in their penultimate match, followed by a commanding 4-0 win at home against Bastia. Lorient has historically been stronger at home, registering 37 points there, while only achieving 18 points from their away games. In the league, they have collected 14 points from the last 30 possible, with 4 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses in their previous 10 away fixtures. Their attack has been consistent, with goals scored in 8 of their last 10 league matches. Notably, their recent away games have exhibited a trend of fewer goals, with less than 3 goals recorded in 8 out of the last 13 matches. In their league campaign, they have conceded the first goal on 13 occasions, successfully reversing the deficit in 6 matches.
Conversely, Lorient has no regrets this season. They continue to perform exceptionally well, which has instilled significant confidence in the current challenging phase. Atop the standings and in excellent form, they arrive well-prepared to tackle this round against a Grenoble side struggling to find a win in their last four Ligue 2 outings.
