A 1-1 draw away in the Coupe de France before that, with Dunkerque (after extra-time, 2-4 on penalties) the opponent.

As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Châteauroux form and stats

Châteauroux, who have the most conceded goals (35) in Ligue 2, have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Ligue 2, after 1-3-6 (10 played). Châteauroux are desperate to end a ten-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Sochaux fixture. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Châteauroux have lost on their last two travels.

There were no winners in Châteauroux's previous match, a Ligue 2 home game that ended 3-3 vs Valenciennes (placed 8th). Preceding that, the 0-2 home loss versus Ajaccio.

As you can tell from the result, the match against Valenciennes was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Châteauroux as they have only managed to score 7 times from 10 away games in the league. Châteauroux struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 16 goals conceded from these games.
