The ten-time champion and six-time French Cup winner celebrated its 100th anniversary last year, but was unable to give fans even a ticket to the Europa League. Stefanois remained in 17th position in the shortened tournament, so no one took such a result seriously and the team did not wait for the strengthening. Moreover, several experienced performers left the team and were replaced by young talents from the team’s football academy. The start of the new championship can be called successful. Three wins and a draw brought them a place in the top part of the standings, but then the team got into the black strip and seven defeats sent the saints to 15th place. Before today’s fight the greens have three victories and peaceful outcomes each, which brought them 12 points. The attack line looks very weak, which was able to hit the opponent’s goal only 12 times. Thats less than one goal per game. After a series of failures Saint-Etienne managed to take away tournament points from Lille (1:1) and Dijon (0:0). Macon, who has not yet coped with a knee injury, will not be able to take part in today’s duel, as well as Ruffier and Retzos.
Benevento had a more than successful starting segment of the championship. The team of Filippo Inzaghi plays bright attacking football and has already managed to present several sensations. At the moment the “witches” occupy 13th place in the table with 11 points in the asset, being ahead of Torino by five points, which is going in the relegation zone, which can be called a comfortable advantage so far. Benevento managed to interrupt a series of four defeats in a row in the eighth round, unexpectedly beating Fiorentina with a score of 1:0 in Florence. Then the witches created their main sensation to date by taking points from Juventus (1:1). Benevento managed to extend the unbeaten streak to three matches in the last round, having survived in a match against Parma (0:0) and kept their goal intact.
