ESTAC

DLLLLD ⚠

In their last game, ESTAC drew 2-2 in the Ligue 2 match with Pau FC.

In that game, ESTAC had 59% possession and 14 attempts on goal with 6 of them on target. For ESTAC, the goals were scored by Kyliane Dong (72') and Mouhamed Diop (78'). For their opponents, Pau FC got 11 attempts on goal with 5 on target. Charles Boli (18') and Mons Bassouamina (90') scored for Pau FC.

ESTAC have been dangerous up front leading up to this encounter, having scored 7 times in their previous 6 matches. While their manager David Guion will no doubt take that as a positive sign, ESTAC have had their own issues at the back, also conceding in 6 of those same games.

A look at their previous results shows us that ESTAC:

• are winless against Amiens SC when they've played them away from home in the last 2 league games.
• are without an away win for the past 8 league matches. Their travelling support will be needed here, for sure.
