Rodez, Recent FormIt's fair to say Rodez will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with Saint-Etienne, a match that ended in a 1-1 draw. They achieved 43% possession in that match and had 12 strikes at goal, with 1 hitting the target, up against Saint-Etienne's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 7 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 6 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 30 of their 37 games.
Having managed to remain undefeated in 5 of their last 6 home matches at Stade Paul-Lignon, they have put together a strong home record of late, winning 3 of these games too.
Ajaccio, Recent FormThe Ajaccio players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their home fixture against Grenoble Foot 38 recently, that ended in a 2-0 defeat. They came away from that fixture with a 54% share of the possession and clocked up 12 attempts on goal with 2 on target, in comparison to Grenoble Foot 38, who managed 13 attempts on goal, 5 of which were on target.
Olivier Pantaloni will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 5 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 9 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, and playing away from home, they have failed to score in 11 of their 18 games this season.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 11 games.
With 2 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Ajaccio, Christopher Ibayi will be looking to add more goals against Rodez in this match.
In the last match between these two, goals were scored on both sides, with the game ending in a 1-1 draw.
L 'Ours have managed to keep a clean sheet against Rodez in each of their previous 2 visits to Stade Paul-Lignon. L 'Ours will be confident of finding the net in this one against Rodez, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 6 encounters between the two sides. In their past 5 meetings, Ajaccio's defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so Le RAF will have to take their chances when they come.
Rodez has a poor track record in the league when they host Ajaccio, losing in their last 2 home games.
With no real injury worries, Rodez manager Didier Santini will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Ajaccio manager Olivier Pantaloni has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
