Laval form and stats

The visitors are W2-D0-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Ligue 2. It's looking increasingly bleak for Laval who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Metz was the last time a defeat was avoided.

Laval might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Pau proved too strong as Laval slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Stade Francis Le Basser. Tavares, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.41. Tavares hit one key pass and won 3 of 3 duels.

Preceding that game, the 1-4 loss visiting Sochaux's place.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Laval playing away and similar expectations, we found 17 relevant matches. Results were 5 Laval wins, 6 draws and 6 defeats.

As opposed to that, Laval have seen the ball go into their own net 5 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

Quevilly Rouen have won or drawn the last 7 fixtures (3-4-0) against Laval.
