Guingamp vs Troyes Prediction & Betting Tips (24 January)

It's difficult to know what this Guingamp team is really worth this season. Too irregular and above all too fragile defensively in the first part of the year, the Bretons had lost contact with the top 5 qualifying for the play-offs due, in particular, to a delicate month of December marked by significant setbacks suffered against Annecy 0-3 and against Rodez 2-1. But the winter break has obviously done good for Sylvain Ripoll's men who started 2026 on a high note with convincing successes against Boulogne 3-0 and Nancy 0-3 on Monday evening. In the ranking, the Costarmoricans returned to 7th place in the ranking, 3 units from the top 5. On the other hand, it is a big piece that presents itself against the En Avant since Troyes is well ahead of this championship.

Stéphane Dumont's men have in fact made a gap with the competition since they are 6 lengths ahead of their runner-up, the Red Star. Undefeated since the beginning of November and a shock against Saint-Etienne, the Aubois ended 2025 with a success against Boulogne 1-2 and they started this new calendar year with 2 victories against Red Star 1-0 and Reims 1-2. In the meantime, Estac qualified for the 1/8 finals of the Coupe de France by dominating Bastia 0-2. She will face Lens in the next round.

Guingamp must still do without its two long-term injured players, conductor Amine Hemia (3 goals, 5 assists) and summer recruit in midfield N'Landu whose seasons are already over. The young striker Hatchi (2 goals) hopes to return to the group, as does the starting goalkeeper Ortola who was ill on Monday during the trip to Nancy. The left side Abdallah and his counterpart on the right Koffi are back. Good news especially as the starter on the left, Ourega, signed up with Westerloo this week and the replacement Matumona will be suspended after being sent off barely 40 seconds after coming into play on Monday.

The young Guassama and the striker Kielt (2 goals) are also suspended. On the other hand, the Bretons will be able to rely on their two winter recruits who are the creator Demoncy (1 goal, 1 assist in 2 games since his arrival) and the twirling Samoura, author of a goal and an assist for his first entry into L2 at the start of the week. At the forefront, Central African striker Louis Mafouta scored his 10th goal of the season on Monday evening, making him the top scorer in the championship.
