Pau form and stats

Let's have a look at how Pau performed last season in the Ligue 2: They landed a 10th position in the league table after playing out 14 victories, 7 draws and 17 defeats. In total they scored 41 and conceded 49 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 4 - drew 5 and lost 10 with 16/29 goals scored/conceded.

That win felt good as this team had gone three league fixtures without winning.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Pau playing away, we found 5 games. Results were 0 away wins, 1 draw and 4 home wins.

It's finally time to play a game of importance again as a long period of training has passed. Pau have played a number of friendly games in this period, resulting in 1 win, 0 draws and 0 defeats from one fixture.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the preceeding four meetings between these two sides are: two wins for Guingamp, zero draws and two wins for Pau. Over 2,5 goals: two times; under 2,5 goals: two games.
