Player to watch: Amine Hemia
Amine Hemia opened the scoring in Guingamp's 1-1 draw at Grenoble last weekend. He has been one of the team's top performers since he joined on a free transfer last summer. The former Martigues forward will look to score in back-to-back games for the third time this season.
