  • 5' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 10' Supporters expect more eagerness from Malek Chergui, as he is very good at scoring at Stade de l'Aube with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 15' Valenciennes FC is showing some good football. However, Valenciennes FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 18' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Gauthier Hein.
  • 23' Both keepers have barely been tested. ES Troyes AC and Valenciennes FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 28' ES Troyes AC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 33' France international Gauthier Hein has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 3 assists in the Array this season.
  • 34' Poor challenge from Baptiste Guillaume. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 38' It’s a booking for Valenciennes FC player. Sessi D'Almeida gets a Yellow card.
  • 43' The travelling Valenciennes FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
