<html> <head> <title>Dijon vs Fleury 91 – National 1 Preview, Odds and Betting Insight</title> </head> <body> <h2>Dijon’s Promotion Push Meets Fleury’s Road Solidity</h2> <p> Dijon host Fleury 91 at Stade Gaston Gérard on Friday night with the hosts entrenched in the promotion conversation after an unbeaten 10-match start. Confidence is high around the club following a deliberate summer of strengthening and a strong points return (20 from 10), while Fleury arrive as a stubborn, organized away side, ninth in the table and unbeaten in their last four on the road. </p> <h3>Form and Momentum</h3> <p> Dijon’s recent 2–0 away win at Versailles followed a 4–1 dismantling of Quevilly-Rouen, extending a sequence that underlines balance: reliable defensive structure and multiple routes to goal. Over the last eight league fixtures, Dijon have maintained 2.0 points per game while cutting goals conceded by 16.7% compared to their season average. Fleury’s eight-game trend is more muted at 1.13 PPG, with three straight draws and a four-match winless run pointing to stasis rather than momentum. </p> <h3>Venue Dynamics: Why Gaston Gérard Matters</h3> <p> The Dijon home split is compelling: 2.2 PPG, 2.4 GF and only 0.8 GA. They have scored first in 80% of home matches and have not trailed at home this season. Fleury are one of National 1’s better traveling outfits statistically (1.50 PPG away; 0.67 GA), but context matters—Dijon’s ball progression and pressing at home generate early pressure, reflected in an average first goal around the 17-minute mark. </p> <h3>Tactical Matchup: Early Pressure vs Late Resistance</h3> <p> Expect Dijon to start on the front foot in a 4-2-3-1/4-3-3 hybrid, with experienced technician Michaël Barreto linking lines and Yanis Barka running at fullbacks. Adel Lembezat’s late surges have added a scoring dimension from midfield. Fleury will likely counter with a compact mid-block and direct transitions through Kévin Faradé, who has shown late-game impact (including penalties). The data shows Fleury concede in the 16–30 window and again late (76–90), zones where Dijon create volume and where the hosts have also been vulnerable to consolation concessions. Game-state advantage strongly favors Dijon if they strike first. </p> <h3>Key Numbers That Shape the Odds</h3> <ul> <li>Dijon at home: 2.2 PPG; Fleury away: 1.5 PPG.</li> <li>Dijon scored first in 80% at home; time trailing at home: 0%.</li> <li>Dijon leading at HT at home: 60%; average first goal around 17’.</li> <li>Fleury away concede notably at 16–30 and 76–90; equalizing rate away 75% suggests late resilience but not control.</li> </ul> <h3>Odds and Where the Value Lies</h3> <p> The 1x2 price on Dijon (1.91) implies a 52.4% chance. Given the home-state dominance, early-goal profile, and Fleury’s waning form, a truer number sits closer to 1.75–1.80. That creates a tangible edge on the home win. If you prefer to express Dijon’s first-half pressure, the First Half Winner at 2.50 looks generous against a 60% HT-lead rate. Team to score first (Dijon 1.67) correlates naturally with that angle and still leaves room for variance late on, where Fleury can be opportunistic. </p> <p> Totals markets are trickier. National 1 leans under, and Fleury away games are lower event, but Dijon’s home slate has produced goals (3.2 TGP). That makes Under 2.5 at 1.65 too short. A more targeted angle is Dijon Over 1.5 Team Goals at 2.17, supported by 2+ goals in 3 of 5 home fixtures and diversified scoring. For a bigger swing, “Dijon to score in both halves” at 3.30 is a price overshoot relative to a 60% home hit-rate; stake smaller due to sample and Fleury’s defensive organization. </p> <h3>What Could Flip the Script?</h3> <p> Two areas: set-piece variance and late-game swings. Fleury’s recent goals include penalties and late equalizers, aligning with Dijon’s occasional late concessions at home. If the hosts fail to score first, the match becomes more attritional and tilts towards a draw. Still, Dijon’s overall ppg when conceding first remains well above league baseline, testament to their control phases and depth. </p> <h3>Verdict</h3> <p> Dijon’s home superiority, fast starts, and multi-source scoring should be enough to outmaneuver Fleury’s capable but limited offense. The market prices the hosts fairly but leaves exploitable edges on the home win and first-half derivative markets. Expect Dijon to impose themselves early and manage the game state from in front. </p> </body> </html>
