The home supporters can't complain about results here at Parc des Sports as Annecy have scored 33 goals to get 37 points from 16 games.

Sedan form and stats

As the visiting team in National matches, Sedan have produced an overall stat of 4-7-5 so far.

313 minutes! That's how long the Sedan goalkeeper Geoffrey Lembet and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

Sedan go into this game after a win, the home game against Orléans that ended 1-0. Misiatu came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Orléans last time out, making the manager Saragaglia feel like a tactical genius.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Red Star at their stadium, the result 1-0.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Sedan have scored 18 goals in 16 league games away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 21 goals have been conceded by Sedan in these games.

Head 2 Head

Sedan - Annecy 1-1 was the end result in these contenders' latest H2H game, earlier this season.
