Preview for match Grenoble vs ESTAC Troyes

On Friday, May 2, 2025, the Ligue 2 clash between Grenoble and ESTAC Troyes is set to take place at the Stade des Alpes at 19:00. This match marks a crucial moment in the season as both teams strive for essential points in the race for better positioning on the league table. Currently, Grenoble occupies the 9th position with 40 points, while ESTAC Troyes sits lower at 13th place with 38 points.

The hosts, Grenoble, have experienced a mixed bag of results throughout the season, managing 11 victories, 7 draws, and 13 defeats. Their goal difference stands at 36:38, indicating a slightly leaky defense that may require reinforcement.

Conversely, ESTAC Troyes has had a challenging season, recording the same number of wins as Grenoble but has suffered more defeats—15 in total. Their goal tally of 33:31 illustrates a relatively solid defense but a lack of potency in attack, contributing to their current precarious position on the league table. The away record for Troyes reflects their struggles, having secured only 6 wins, along with 1 draw and 9 defeats.

The last direct meeting between these two sides ended in a goalless draw, which underscores the competitive nature of their encounters. Both teams will be eager to break this trend and claim a vital three points.
