Versailles form and stats

The story so far in the National for Versailles at their home stadium (Stade Michel Hidalgo) is 9 wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats.

Rénot was the last player to score a league goal for Versailles and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Versailles haven't scored in 180 minutes.

In their previous game, the manager Gomes led his Versailles to a defeat away at Gobelins. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stade Michel Hidalgo.

Preceding that match was the home game against Red Star that was lost 0-3.

Versailles are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 21 goals in 16 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Versailles are not conceding a lot of goals here at Stade Michel Hidalgo in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 15 from 16 matches.

Avranches form and stats

5-2-9 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Avranches in their National matches away. Bitter travels for Avranches as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Red Star match.

Avranches won their last game, 3-1 versus Bastia-Borgo played at home. That victory felt sweet as this team had gone five league rounds without winning.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Nancy wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Avranches when being an outsider away as they are today, we find 8 matches with the visitors losing 4 times, drawing 2 and winning 2 games.

Goal-happy betting people should observe that 10 of this side's 11 latest league games have ended with three goals or more.

The visitors have scored 14 goals from 16 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Avranches's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 24 goals from these trips.
