Red Star form and stats

Red Star have only played one National game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 8 wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats from 17 matches.

Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Quentin Beunardeau not having conceded a league goal in 209 minutes.

Red Star are returning here after visiting Martigues and winning with a 1-0 scoreline.

Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Sochaux.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Red Star's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played 4 games, won 1 match, drawn 2 and lost 1.

There will be little rest for Star after this match as they are travelling to Le Mans for a National game in only four days.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Red Star at home in the league. 2 on target and 0 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.

Rouen form and stats

Rouen are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the National, having played 2 games and collected 2 points (0 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses).

Rouen are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the fixture against Orléans (placed 15th). That victory felt sweet as this team had gone three league matches without winning.

Before that, Rouen travelled to Versailles and returned home with a draw after the game finished 2-2.

A new game in only four days for Rouen, the National home match versus Chasselay MDA. Busy days.

It's early days yet, but Rouen has scored 2 and conceded 2 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).

Head 2 Head

Red Star-Rouen H2H statistics last six meetings regardless of arena: Red Star three wins, Rouen three wins, zero draws. three of these six matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
