Boulogne have gone the other way, drawing five of their seven league games without managing a single win. Their heaviest recent blow came in a 1-2 home defeat to Nantes, and a 0-1 loss at Guingamp is their only other reverse.

Sochaux's occasional bursts of goals have turned draws into wins, something Boulogne have yet to manage.

Comparative Team Statistics: Sochaux vs Boulogne

A history from a different division

The two sides met twice last season, both in Ligue 3. Sochaux won 3-2 away at Boulogne, then the return fixture at Sochaux finished 1-1. Since that was a division below where both are competing now, it says little about their current form.

Where they stand in the table

After seven games, Sochaux sit eighth with ten points, while Boulogne are down in seventeenth on five points. Sochaux have scored four and conceded five, Boulogne three and five, so neither side has been prolific, but Sochaux's extra pair of wins gives them the healthier position.

Cards to watch

Boulogne's discipline has been a little shaky: M. Mion has already picked up a red card in just three appearances, and A. Hbouch and T. Brusco both carry yellow-card form too. Sochaux's S. Agouzoul has two yellows from three matches as well, so both sides have players who'll need to be careful.
