Preview: Grenoble vs. Guingamp - prediction, team news, lineups

Sports Mole previews Friday's Ligue 2 clash between Grenoble and Guingamp, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

Grenoble will round off the 2022-23 Ligue 2 campaign with a home meeting against Guingamp on Friday.

With the visitors sitting in seventh place and Grenoble in ninth position, there is only pride to play for on the final day of the season.


Match preview

Grenoble know that their stay in the second tier will extend into a sixth straight season, but they will still be keen to claim all three points after enduring a poor run of form.

The month of May has produced three defeats - all by a 1-0 scoreline - and one draw, leaving Friday's hosts without a win in four matches.

After suffering a narrow away defeat to Valenciennes last time out, Grenoble will be relieved to return to the comfort of Stade des Alpes, where they have lost just one of their last eight matches.

Grenoble have the chance to complete a league double over Guingamp after winning January's reverse fixture by a 4-2 scoreline.

If the hosts are to claim all three points then the first goal could be crucial, as they have won all nine home league games this season where they have scored the opening goal.

Guingamp, meanwhile, enter the contest in seventh place, and they are looking to secure a top-half finish in Ligue 2 for the fourth consecutive season.

They will also be aiming to extend their unbeaten run to four games after picking up seven points from their last three matches.

In their most recent outing, Stephane Dumont's side recorded a 2-0 home victory over Niort thanks to a brace from Gaetan Courtet.

Guingamp will now head on their travels for the final match of the 2022-23 campaign, and they will have the chance to claim consecutive away league victories for the first time in 2023.

The visitors have failed to win their last two away meetings with Grenoble, and they will attempt to record an away victory over Friday's opponents for the first time since July 2010.

Team News

Grenoble are unable to call upon the services of Seikou Touray and Bamba Sanyang due to injury issues, while there are doubts over Franck Bambock's availability.

After missing the last two matches through suspension, Loic Nestor will return to the squad, but the defender may have to settle for a place on the bench.

Baptiste Isola has started the last three matches for Grenoble, and he is expected to retain his place for Friday's encounter.

As for the visitors, they may be forced into a change in defence after Nottingham Forest loanee Loic Mbe Soh was forced off in the first half last Friday.

If he is unable to feature against Grenoble then Donatien Gomis could be brought into the side to partner Mathis Riou in central defence.

Amani El Ouazzani could also feature in the starting lineup after he came off the bench to provide an assist for Courtet's second goal against Niort.


Grenoble possible starting lineup:
Maubieu; Tourraine, Monfray, Tchaptchet, Mendy; Isola, Ngando, Benet; Phaeton, Sbai, Tell

Guingamp possible starting lineup:
Basilo; Sivis, Riou, Gomis, Gaudin; Louiserre, Muyumba; El Ouazzani, Courtet, Livolant; Guillaume


SM words green background

We say: Grenoble 1-1 Guingamp

Guingamp will be in high spirits after collecting seven points from their last three matches, and we think that they will extend that run by picking up a point against a Grenoble side that have lost just one of their previous eight home games.
