Current Form

Estac Troyes's overall Ligue 2 record this term: 6W 2D 2L from 10 games (2.00 PPG). Last five: W D W L W. They are averaging 1.10 goals per game and conceding 0.60 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. Defensively, conceding just 0.60 per game is an exceptional defensive record — one of the tightest in the division. 7 clean sheets from 10 games (70%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches. Both teams have scored in only 20% of their games — a low BTTS rate that suggests clean sheets are a regular occurrence. Estac Troyes have played only a handful of Ligue 2 games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

In front of their own supporters this season, Estac Troyes have posted 6W 2D 2L at Stade de l'Aube — 2.00 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.20 goals scored and 0.50 conceded per game. 6 clean sheets from 10 home games (60%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at Stade de l'Aube. At home, both teams have scored in only 20% of games — reinforcing BTTS No as the home-venue-backed angle.

Guingamp have collected 1.40 PPG across 10 Ligue 2 outings this season: 4W 2D 4L. Last five: D L L W W. They are scoring at 1.60 per game and conceding 1.70. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. Guingamp have played only a handful of Ligue 2 games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

It is worth noting that Guingamp have a superior record in this fixture despite their visitor status — 3 wins from 4 meetings. Home advantage alone is not a sufficient reason to dismiss that track record.

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Estac Troyes 1.44 xG and Guingamp 0.97 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Estac Troyes attack 1.195 / defence 0.734 | Guingamp attack 1.155 / defence 1.016. League average goals — home 1.184 / away 1.143. Estac Troyes's defence rating of 0.734 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 39 Estac Troyes games / 39 Guingamp games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Estac Troyes 48% | Draw 27% | Guingamp 25%. Fair-value odds: Estac Troyes 2.08 | Draw 3.70 | Guingamp 4.00. Estac Troyes hold a narrow Poisson edge at 48% — the draw (27%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 43% | BTTS probability 47% | Total xG 2.40. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 57% — total xG of 2.40 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 47% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Picks & Verdict

Guingamp lead the H2H ledger, but Estac Troyes carry stronger current form — do not let history alone dictate your assessment.

On the Poisson output, Estac Troyes are the pick at 48% — moderate model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 27% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Estac Troyes if the outright odds are short.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.40 combined xG gives a 43% probability to Under 2.5 — reasonable, supported by H2H averaging 1.5 goals per meeting.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is No at 47%. Form rates corroborate: Estac Troyes 20% | Guingamp 60% BTTS from recent games.
