Nancy form and stats
The story so far in the Ligue 2 for Nancy, who have the most conceded goals (16) at home in Ligue 2, at their home stadium (Stade Marcel-Picot) is 2 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats.
It's back home for Nancy, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Valenciennes away with the result 3-2. Mickael Biron, Kenny Rocha Santos and Ousmane Cissokho found the net in that victory. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 3-3 versus Chambly.
A very satisfying win for Nancy against Valenciennes last time out as a late comeback secured the victory after trailing 0-2. The win was secured through Ousmane Cissokho's goal in the 90th minute. Things did not look good last match, when Rosario Latouchent got a red card in the 55th minute. They were already behind at this time, but a tremendous finish from Nancy resulted in a win! The victory against Valenciennes came after Ousmane Cissokho's winning goal. The Nancy manager J. Garcia was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 64th minute.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Nancy have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found twelve matches with the results: Won five, drawn three and lost four.
A decent goal production from Nancy in their home games so far, with 14 goals from 8 league matches. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Nancy with 16 goals conceded in these matches. It's worth mentioning that 8 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Rodez form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Rodez so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 0-5-3 (win-draw-lose). The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Rodez, who have now gone 13 games without a victory. The Dunkerque game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. Rodez has drawn their two previous away games.
There were no winners in Rodez's previous match, a Ligue 2 home game that ended 1-1 vs Niort (placed 9th). Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to Le Havre.
As mentioned above, Rodez drew the match against Niort. Manager L. Peyrelade brought on Florian David to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Rodez playing away and similar expectations, we found twelve relevant matches. Results were one Rodez win, ten draws and one defeat.
The attacking power of Rodez when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 8 league matches away. As for defending, Rodez rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 13 goals from these away matches.
