Ajaccio form and stats

The first Ligue 2 game here at Stade François Coty resulted in a draw. Last season Ajaccio's home game statistics were 4 victories, 3 draws and 12 defeats from 19 games.

A strong away win for Ajaccio against Quevilly Rouen the last match, as Nouri were on target. Vidal was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.44 out of 10. The defender Vidal won 7 of 9 duels.

In the match before that, Ajaccio hosted Rodez and drew the game 1-1.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Ajaccio have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 7 matches with the results: Won 3, drawn 1 and lost 3.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Ajaccio at home in the league. 1 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
