Lorient had a strong finish to Ligue 2 last season, and they will be hoping to extend the same here, when they face a Caen side still coming to terms with life in the second tier. While Caen have managed three straight draws heading to this game, Lorient have picked three wins in their last five matches and will be firm favorites here, even though they will be playing away from home. Caen finished Ligue 1 on two straight losses and their start in the second tier has not been inspiring. Caen’s preseason was also not fruitful and they head to this game on two wins in 10 and just four clean sheets in that run. They have won three of their last 13 home matches and have four clean sheets in 17 home matches. Lorient, on their part, have five wins and two losses in their last 10 matches. They have scored in nine of their last 10 games and have five clean sheets in 10 matches. They are unbeaten in six of Ligue 2 matches and have scored in 13 of 15 Ligue 2 matches. Away from home they are unbeaten in four Ligue 2 matches and they have scored in nine straight Ligue 2 away matches. In the last six meetings between the two sides, each has won three.
