Rodez form and stats

Things could have gone better for Rodez in their Ligue 2 away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.

Home advantage was not enough for Rodez in their previous game as they lost hosting Metz, 1-4. Which player has beaten the opponent goalie three matches in a row for the away team? The answer is Depres and that is solid stuff! Boissier got a match rating of 7.42 in that game, top player of the team. Boissier hit two key passes and had 47 successful passes (of 52 total).

Preceding that game was the away victory against Bastia with the score of 2-0.

The attacking power of Rodez when travelling is not overwhelming with 2 goals scored from 3 league matches away. Rodez's manager Peyrelade has created a great defensive setup working very nicely in away games with only 1 conceded goal. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
