This match features two teams living in the basement of the Ligue 2, Chambly holding 17th place and Niort lying 16th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Chambly form and stats

With {1 Ligue 2 wins}, 3 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Chambly are certainly not brimming with confidence. With eight home games in a row without a win, the Chambly fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Valenciennes game long ago, can be stopped today.

Stress levels are on the rise for Chambly's attacking players as they have now played 184 minutes without scoring in a league game. A. Soubervie was their last goal scorer.

A good away victory last time out for Chambly, who won 2-1 against Annecy. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Lens (0-3).

Chambly have scored 3 goals here in 9 league matches, a depressing statistic. Chambly's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 13 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Niort form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Niort so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-4 (win-draw-lose). A depressing four defeats in a row for Niort in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Valenciennes.

Niort are looking to quickly end their 191 minutes long goal drought.

Niort failed to get anything from their last game, a Ligue 2 home match vs Ajaccio (placed 3rd) that ended with defeat 0-1. Prior to that match, the Niort manager P. Plancque faced defeat when travelling to Clermont and losing 0-1.

The visitors have scored 6 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. As opposed to that, Niort have seen the ball go into their own net 10 times on the road.
