Paris form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Ligue 2 this season. Paris, who have the most conceded goals (17) at home in Ligue 2, have only managed 2 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses from their games here at Stade Sebastien Charlety. Paris are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Stade Sebastien Charlety, having lost their two previous games here.

The Paris fans got no joy from their last match, a Coupe de France game also here at Stade Sebastien Charlety: A 2-3 defeat against Saint-Etienne. A 1-1 draw away in the Ligue 2 before that, with Sochaux the opponent.

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 14 matches with the results: Won 8 Drawn 1 Lost 5.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Paris here at Stade Sebastien Charlety in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (6 from 9 games). With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Paris defense is not exactly impregnable. 17 goals conceded from 9 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Rodez form and stats

There's been little loot from Rodez's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 10 away games in the Ligue 2. Rodez only have 1 win to counter their 7 defeats and 2 draws. A depressing four defeats in a row for Rodez in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Clermont.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Ligue 2 home defeat versus Châteauroux with 1-2 on the scoreboard. Prior to that match, the Rodez manager L. Peyrelade faced defeat when travelling to Consolat Marseille and losing 1-2.

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 4 Rodez wins, 5 draws and 3 defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Rodez as they have only managed to score 6 times from 10 away games in the league. Rodez have conceded 14 goals in these away matches.
