It's no vacation for neither Rodez nor Nancy as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Rodez form and stats
Rodez, who have the fewest scored goals (12) at home in Ligue 2, have collected 17 points from their Ligue 2 home games so far after 3-8-5. All in all it has been a very rough period for Rodez who hasn’t won a league-game in their last 16 attempts. Their previous win was against Nîmes, 136 days ago.
Stress levels are on the rise for Rodez's attacking players as they have now played 240 minutes without scoring in a league game. Chougrani was their last goal scorer.
The Rodez club members got no joy from their last match, also played here at Stade Paul Lignon: A 0-1 defeat against Paris (placed 4th). Malanda was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.62 out of 10. The defender Malanda won 3 of 5 duels.
Heartbreak before that as Rodez lost 0-2 at Quevilly Rouen's place.This is expected to be a close game, with Rodez perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Rodez as a small favourite), we find twelve games. Rodez has won two of these, drawn seven and lost three.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Rodez as they are travelling to their away game against Nîmes in the Ligue 2. That match is three days after this one.
Rodez aren't scoring a lot here at Stade Paul Lignon in the league, with only 12 goals from 16 games. From these home matches, Rodez have conceded only 15 goals.
Nancy form and stats
There's been little loot from Nancy's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 17 away games in the Ligue 2. Nancy only have 1 win to counter their 12 defeats and 4 draws. With the Nancy losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.
Nancy are looking to quickly end their 284 minutes long goal drought in the Ligue 2.
Nancy might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Niort proved too strong as Nancy slumped to a 0-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Stade Marcel-Picot. Basila, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.44. Basila hit one key pass and won 7 of 8 duels.
Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Sochaux's place.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 19 relevant matches. Results were three Nancy wins, eight draws and eight defeats.
A quick return to home after this game, as Nancy are hosting Quevilly Rouen in the Ligue 2 only three days away.
The visitors have scored 12 goals from 17 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. In the opposite end, Nancy have conceded 33 goals in their away games.
Head 2 Head
The former head to head game ended Nancy - Rodez 0-2, earlier this season. Head-2-head stats last five meetings: one - four - zero (Rodez wins - draws - Nancy wins). As for goals, one match ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four had two or less.Top Goalscorers
