Caen to Win

Our first Caen vs Dijon prediction back the Vikings to record a win that will keep them in the promotion race. Caen won 3 of their last 4 home games and they’ve lost just once on home turf all season (W8 D5). Now they are up against the worst travelling team in the league Dijon. Dijon collected just 2 points from their last 11 away matches (D2 L9).

Mendy to Score Anytime

Our next Caen vs Dijon prediction backs Caen’s top scorer Mendy (12 goals) to continue his recent hot streak and get on the scoresheet again. Mendy has scored 4 goals in Caen’s last 4 home matches. He has scored in exactly 50% of all of Caen’s home games so far. Now he will be up against a Dijon team that managed to keep just 1 clean sheet in their last 13 away games.

Clean Sheet Caen

With our final Caen vs Dijon prediction we back the hosts to keep a clean sheet. Caen kept 6 of their 8 clean sheets this season at home and clearly, this is where they are much more efficient defensively. Dijon were unable to score in 3 of their last 4 away games and they average less than a goal per game on the road this season – 9 goals scored in 13 away matches.

Caen vs Dijon Lineups and Team News

Caen

Caen’s promotion chances remained alive after a narrow win vs Valenciennes in the last round. The Vikings have been solid lately (W4 D2 L1) but they need only wins from now on if they are to close the gap. Caen rely heavily on their home games for wins with 8 of their 11 league victories so far achieved on home turf.

The gaffer will be forced into changes to his lineup. He’s expected to stick to a back four as Ntim remains doubtful. Also, key playmaker Saletros is out injured. Zady is also sidelined right now, so short on options for the attacking midfield role.

Dijon

Dijon’s last game before the international break was a painful 0-1 loss vs Pau. This left the team 5 points adrift from safety and in desperate need of better results.

Dijon are destined to make changes to their lineup for this one. Inner midfielder Ahlinvi misses suspended. In his absence, Marie should start. Traore returns from suspension though so he’s a boost to the defensive line where Ngouyamsa and Coulibaly are doubtful after both returned late from international duty.
