In total they scored 37 and conceded {55 goals} in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 7 and lost 10 with 17/29 goals scored/conceded.

The manager Aristouy was unhappy after their last game, played at their home stadium Stade de la Beaujoire - Louis Fonteneau. Nantes suffered a 1-2 loss to Toulouse (placed 5th). Nantes were so close to getting something from the game against Toulouse, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal one minutes into overtime. The attacker Mollet got a match rating of 7.6 in that game. Mollet hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 46 successful passes (of 49 total).

That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Angers SCO.
