Fleury's last seven have been far more up and down. There's a 6-1 win over Villefranche in there, but also defeats to Quevilly and Orleans and three draws, including a blank against Amiens. Consistency has been the issue, not quality in patches.

Caen look the more reliable side on recent evidence, but neither team has been fully settled.

Comparative Team Statistics: Fleury 91 vs Caen

Recent meetings split down the middle

The last two head-to-head games went to the home side each time: Caen won 1-0 when they hosted, Fleury won 2-1 when they had home advantage. Two games isn't much to build a trend on, but it does suggest neither side has had an easy time of it away from home against the other.

A real gap in the table

Caen sit second with 15 points from eight games, while Fleury are down in 13th with nine points from seven. That's a noticeable gap in points-per-game terms this early in the season.

It's worth remembering this is only a snapshot involving these two clubs, not the full table, so the exact size of the gap to other sides isn't clear. Still, the difference between them is plain enough.

How this one might play out

Caen arrive with the better league form and more goals scored, but they've shown they can be got at defensively when the opposition presses them. Fleury have struggled at home this season, drawing or losing several of their recent matches there, yet they've also shown they can score heavily on a good day.

Put together, this has the look of a game that could go either way depending on which version of each side turns up. Caen's overall form gives them a case, but Fleury's home matches haven't followed a single obvious pattern lately.
