Pau perform at a high level so far being 4th in the table. Béziers can look both up and down from their 12th position.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Pau form and stats
Pau, who have the most clean sheets (10) in National, have collected 19 points from their National home games so far after 5-4-1. The last three games played by Pau, regardless of arena, have all ended draws.
Pau manager B. Irles and his team return home after a 0-0 draw away versus Quevilly Rouen (placed 14th) in the National. Ahead of that match, Pau won a home game hosting Bordeaux (3-2).
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Pau have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 13 games) they have won 5 times, drawn 4 and lost 4.
