Nantes form and stats

4-5-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Ligue 1 numbers at home for Nantes so far this season.

The Nantes club members got no joy from their last fixture, a Europa League duel also played here at Stade de la Beaujoire - Louis Fonteneau: A 0-3 defeat against Juventus.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Lens (1-3).

It should be added that a peek at the 11 most recent league matches shows that 9 of them qualified as a both teams to score: NO result (only one or none of the sides scored).

The match schedule is unforgiving for Nantes as they have a new game in only three days, a Coupe de France match thankfully also at home. Lens are visiting.

The Nantes fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 13 in 11 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches.
