The visiting Niort side should be favourites in this visit to Pau, as the away team holds a 11 point advantage from their seven league games this season.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Pau form and stats
Three Ligue 2 home games done for Pau, who are not happy collecting 2 points from these matches.

Pau aren't scoring a lot here at Stade du Hameau in the league, with only 2 goals from 3 games. On the other hand, Pau have conceded 3 goals.
Niort form and stats
Niort have six points from their first three away games in the Ligue 2, meaning two victories and a loss.

The attacking power of Niort when travelling is not overwhelming with 2 goals scored from 3 league matches away. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (2 so far).
