Villefranche form and stats
Villefranche have secured 5 points from their first three home games in the National. A decent catch, still with room for improvement.
The home team returns to Stade Armand Chouffet after drawing with Le Puy F.43 Auvergne (placed 13th) on their last time out; the game ended 1-1.
In the match before that, Villefranche hosted Martigues and drew the game 1-1.The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams.

Bourg-en-Bresse form and stats
It's gone fairly well in the National away games so far for Bourg-en-Bresse with six points collected from three matches.
Bourg-en-Bresse delivered a 3-3 draw playing at home against Stade Briochin (placed 17th) in their previous game. Drawing 3-3 against Stade Briochin after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager Pochat needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result.
Preceding that game was the away victory against Chateauroux with the score of 2-0.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Bourg-en-Bresse playing away and similar expectations, we found 19 relevant matches. Results were 6 Bourg-en-Bresse wins, 4 draws and 9 defeats.
