Form Guide
Laval
LWDDW
Laval have led a very sub-par campaign in terms of performances in the French second division this season and to that effect command a lower table spot. The side find themselves in 16th place and within the relegation zone having picked up only 28 points from their 31 encounters since the start of the season. Their fight for survival has seen the hosts’ manage to restructure their form. They arrive this fixture having avoided defeat in their past four league games, with a fair split of two victories and two defeats at full-time.
Rodez
WDDWW
Rodez, from the Aveyron in southern France are one of Ligue 2's more consistent performers this season. The side through their 51 point tally this campaign occupy sixth place on the log and have an outside chance to secure promotion via the playoff spots. The visitors’ at the moment are arguably the most in-form team in the division having avoided defeat in their past 11 league games. They arrive this fixture on the back of consecutive victories over Troyes (2-1) and Amiens (3-2) to cancel out the drop in performance over the share of spoils with Dunkerque (1-1)
Prediction
This fixture comes as one between two Ligue 2 sides competing in an open mid-table fixture. As such, expect at least two goals come full-time.
