Dijon FCO
- Dijon FCO are the National 2025-2026 pacesetters after 27 matches with 55 points, three more than Sochaux in second.
- There’s a meeting of different philosophies in this matchup, with Baptiste Ridira’s structured 4-4-2 and possession-based approach the foundation upon which Dijon have built their ascendancy.
-
Dijon FCO have won four of their last five matches, with their only defeat during that time coming away at FC Fleury 91.
- Dijon FCO are averaging 2.15 goals scored and 0.85 conceded per home game in National 2025/2026.
- Their home record in National 2025/2026 tells the story - won 8, drawn 4, lost 1 from 13.
Sochaux
- Sochaux have played their best football under new manager Vincent Hognon, who has implemented a 4-2-3-1 system that is much more aggressive and based on transitions.
-
Hognon’s men have been strong on the road, and they’ll look to press Dijon high and wide, attempting to win the ball back in dangerous areas.
- Sochaux are averaging 1.57 goals scored and 0.93 goals conceded per away game in National 2025/2026.
- Sochaux’s record of three wins, one draw and one defeat in the last five is a little patchy, but they’ve won one and lost one of their last two away, so they’re a bit inconsistent on the road.
Head-to-Head
Dijon are similarly placed in the head-to-head, failing to win their last two at home, but the last clash between the sides, in National 2025/2026, finished 1-0 away to Dijon, and they are at 2.15 to secure another victory.
