The managers C. Pélissier and O. Pantaloni are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the Ligue 2 league table.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting Ajaccio have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 1-0-2 (win-draw-loss) from three matches. Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1500 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
