Insights:
  • Annecy have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored at home.
  • Pau have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.

Pau have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Annecy and Pau should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Pau form and stats

There's been little loot from Pau's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 6 away games in the Ligue 2. Pau only have 1 win to counter their 3 defeats and 2 draws.

Pau's last game was the home draw against Rodez (2-2). As mentioned above, Pau drew the match against Rodez. Manager Tholot brought on Hải to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked. Kouassi was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.44. The defender Kouassi served one assist, hit one key pass and won 2 of 3 duels.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Metz wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.
