ℹ️ Team News: SM Caen
It’s a low absenteeism rate, with just one fitness concern for the SM Caen gaffer Pascal Dupraz to contend with from a near full-strength group of players. Garissone Innocent (Circulation Problems) will miss out.
ℹ️ Team News: Paris FC
Thanks to a mainly full-strength group, there is only the sole fitness problem for the Paris FC boss René Girard to contend with. Lamine Diaby-Fadiga (Thigh Problems) misses out for this game.
🧠 Prediction
We’re of the view that SM Caen could well find it tough to put one past this Paris FC team who we reckon should do enough to score at the other end and edge ahead.
We therefore see a hard-fought 0-1 winning margin for Paris FC at the end of the match.
There should be little in it.
