Nancy form and stats

The supporters are hoping that Nancy will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the match against Villefranche (placed 8th).

Sedan form and stats

The manager Saragaglia was unhappy after their last game, played at their home ground Stade Louis-Dugauguez. Sedan suffered a 1-3 loss to Concarneau (placed 1st). That loss was their first after five consecutive league games winning points.

Preceding that game was the away victory against Dunkerque with the score of 3-1.
