Pau form and stats

Last season, Pau's league statistics were 11 wins, 11 draws and 16 losses, resulting in a 14th position in the Ligue 2. Over these 38 matches they scored 42 goals and conceded 49. Playing at home last season Pau managed 9-5-5 (win-draw-lost) with 26 goals and 19 conceded.

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 Pau have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found ten matches with the results: Won five, drawn four and lost one.

Nancy form and stats

Let's have a look at how Nancy performed last season in the Ligue 2: They landed a 8th position in the league table after playing out 11 victories, 14 draws and 13 defeats. In total they scored 53 and conceded 53 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 5 - drew 6 and lost 8 with 25/25 goals scored/conceded.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Nancy playing away and similar expectations, we found 20 relevant matches. Results were three Nancy wins, ten draws and seven defeats.

It's a day of discovery for Nancy as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Nancy have played two with the results W1-D0-L1 (win-draw-lost). In these games Nancy has scored 4 goals and conceded 4 times.

Head 2 Head
