The numbers. Troyes score 1.4 and concede 1.6 a game in their last five at home, with three clean sheets and two games without a goal.

Where it pulls both ways. On goals, their goals for and against point to an open game; their records put over 2.5 goals at 56%; six of the last ten meetings went under 2.5.

The case against. Troyes's record still gives them 25% to win.
