Newly promoted Dijon will wrap up the fourth round of matches in Ligue 2, hosting St. Etienne. The two sides are placed on opposite ends of the league standings, Dijon second from bottom and St. Etienne top. St. Etienne are yet to lose this season, and they are the pick on our prediction.
Winners in Ligue 3, Dijon, have found this step up a bit too steep for their liking. They are going into matchday four winless in the league, having only collected two points from a possible nine.
In their latest outing they drew 1-1 away to Clermont. Earlier they had lost at home, failing to score in the 1-0 defeat.
St. Etienne should have no trouble at all in this encounter. In their last meeting with Dijon, back in 2023, they won 2-0, and coming here, they are very likely to pull the same.
The visitors haven’t tasted defeat this season and have been great defensively and offensively in equal measure.
That explains why they have scored 10 times in their last three matches and conceded just one goal. In their latest outing, ST. Etienne overcame Grenoble 4-0. They have learned from their near miss in the promotion playoffs and will want to earn an automatic slot.

Our Dijon vs Saint Etienne Prediction
Dijon have so far stuttered in the new season and come here without a win. It has been a tough transition for the hosts, having won the Ligue 3 title last season. In their search for a win, it has been tougher at home.
The only time they’ve failed to score was in their one home game, and yet here they face the unforgiving St. Etienne. The visitors have been scoring for fun and have only conceded once. Our prediction for Dijon v St. Etienne is for St. Etienne to win with a clean sheet.
