Competition for the top two is huge at the moment, and the first-placed Troyes cannot afford to drop any points to weaker sides. Laurent Batlles' team will welcome the fifteenth-placed Caen, who are without a victory for seven consecutive matches. This is only the third game of the newly-appointed coach, Fabrice Vandeputte, who has failed to make a change in this team's results since he took charge, limited with time and resources. Four of Caen's last five visits to Troyes ended in losses, with the underdogs prevailing in just one of those clashes.

Troyes is the league's best host, with thirty-nine points from sixteen home matches. The hosts are only three points ahead of the third-placed Toulouse, who are breathing on their necks alongside second-placed Clermont. Troyes has won twelve of their sixteen home games, losing just one, contrary to Caen that won only three of their sixteen visits. Batlles' squad is coming from a 1-1 game against the fifth-placed Paris. Troyes hasn't performed well recently, losing two of their last five matches. This game is an opportunity for them to regain the momentum, and I expect them to do so. They will only be missing Lenny Pintor for the upcoming duel.

Caen is coming from a 3-1 loss against Grenoble, their sixth consecutive winless performance away from home so far. There isn't much to say about the guest, this isn't their season and they will likely remain fighting relegation for the next six rounds. Caen's top-striker, Yacine Bammou, is injured, making their offense a lot less dangerous. Caen has somehow tied two of their previous three games, and a point is the most they could get from the hosts' bad shape.

Good luck!

目前，前两名的竞争非常激烈，排在第一位的特鲁瓦（Troyes）不能将任何分差都输给实力较弱的一方。洛朗·巴特莱斯（Laurent Batlles）的团队将欢迎第15位的卡昂（Caen），他们连续七场比赛均未获胜。这只是新任命的教练法布里斯·范德普特（Fabrice Vandeputte）的第三场比赛，他自上任以来一直没有改变球队的成绩，时间和资源都有限。卡昂（Caen）最近五次访问特鲁瓦（Troyes）的其中四次都以失败告终，失败者在其中一场冲突中占了上风。

特鲁瓦是联盟最好的主场球队，在16场主场比赛中得到39分。主队仅比第三名的图卢兹领先三分，图卢兹与第二名的Clermont并驾齐驱。特鲁瓦赢得了十六场主场比赛中的十二场，输掉了一场，而凯恩则只赢得了十六场比赛中的三场。 Batlles的球队来自1-1对阵第五名的巴黎。特鲁瓦还没有最近表现不错，输了最后五场比赛中的两场。这场比赛为他们提供了重新获得动力的机会，我希望他们能够做到。他们将只为即将到来的对决而错过Lenny Pintor。

卡昂在对阵格勒诺布尔的比赛中以3-1失利，这是他们迄今为止连续第六次无主场表现。关于客队的话没什么可说的，这不是他们的赛季，他们可能会在接下来的六轮比赛中继续降级。卡昂的前锋Yacine Bammou受了伤，因此进攻没有那么危险。卡昂之前的三场比赛中取得两场平局，主要是由于对手状态不佳。

预测特鲁瓦胜，祝好运！
