Le Mans form and stats

There's been little loot from Le Mans's travels as they have only collected 14 points from 14 away games in the National. Le Mans only have 3 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 5 draws. A depressing five defeats in a row for Le Mans in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Lyon Duchere.

Mans go into this game after a win, the home game against Avranches that ended 1-0. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Laval wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

Mans are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, two draws and five defeats. From a total of eight matches.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Mans as they have only managed to score 13 times from 14 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 18 goals have been conceded by Le Mans in these games.
