It's the second window of opportunity for points this league season as Amiens SC and Annecy bump heads at Stade Moulonguet.

Amiens SC form and stats

The season before, Amiens SC's league statistics were 9 wins, 17 draws and 12 losses, ending with 14th position in the Ligue 2. From these 38 matches they scored 43 goals and gave away 41. Appearing as the home side in the last season Amiens SC produced 7-6-6 (win-draw-lost) with 26 goals and 16 conceded.

Amiens SC are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-3 away versus Metz. Midfield player Leautey got a match rating of 7.5 in that game, the max score being 10. Leautey hit the woodwork once, hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 3 of 3 times and had 30 successful passes (of 31 total).

Prior to that, an away loss at Auxerre.

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 Amiens SC have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 11 matches with the results: Won 4, drawn 5 and lost 2.

Annecy form and stats

Let's have a look at how Annecy performed last season in the National: They landed a 2nd position in the league table after playing out 19 victories, 9 draws and 6 defeats. In total they scored 55 and conceded 30 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 7 - drew 5 and lost 5 with 20/21 goals scored/conceded.

Annecy failed to get anything from their last game, a home match vs Niort (placed 5th) that ended with defeat 1-2. Midfielder Temanfo was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.41. Temanfo scored one goal.

That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Sedan in the National.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Annecy playing away and similar expectations, we found 11 relevant matches. Results were 2 Annecy wins, 6 draws and 3 defeats.
