Paris form and stats

0 victories, 0 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Paris have to build on here at Stade de l'Aube in the Ligue 2.

López was the last player to score a league goal for Paris and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Paris haven't scored in 295 minutes.

No payout for Paris in their previous match, an away game at Pau that ended in defeat 0-2. It's a bit odd, but the exact result 0-2 has been on "repeat" three league matches in a row. Mbow was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.45 out of 10. The defender Mbow won 8 of 12 duels.

Heartbreak before that as Paris lost 0-2 at Grenoble Foot 38's place.

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 Paris have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 10 matches with the results: Won 5, drawn 3 and lost 2.

At Stade de l'Aube, Paris has the goal stats of 0-2 (for/against) from 1 league fixture.

Concarneau form and stats

Concarneau have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Ligue 2 were 8 victories, 4 draws and 5 defeats from 17 fixtures.

The attacking players of Concarneau have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 270 minutes.

Concarneau might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Caen proved too strong as Concarneau slumped to a 0-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Stade Guy Piriou. Midfield player Chadli was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.55/10. Chadli hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 3 of 4 times and had 26 successful passes (of 30 total).

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Bordeaux wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Concarneau playing away and similar expectations, we found 11 relevant matches. Results were 5 Concarneau wins, 4 draws and 2 defeats.

It's early days yet, but Concarneau has scored 0 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last two matches): Paris one win, zero draws and Concarneau one victory. As for goals, zero matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two games had two or less.
