Current Form and Recent Results
Pau FC, currently sitting in 8th place in Ligue 2, has been a team of draws, with 9 of their 26 matches ending in stalemates. Their recent form reflects this pattern, with consecutive 1-1 draws against Stade Lavallois and SC Bastia. Despite a balanced record of 10 wins, 9 draws, and 7 losses, Pau FC has struggled to convert these draws into victories. Their scoring is led by Khalid Boutaïb and Pathé Mboup, who have been crucial in their attacking efforts. However, their inability to secure wins at home, having not won in their last four home matches, is a concern.
Rodez Aveyron Football's Struggles
Rodez Aveyron Football has been on a downward trajectory, currently on a three-match losing streak and positioned 13th in the league. Their recent form has been inconsistent, with a notable 5-1 victory against Annecy being overshadowed by their recent losses. Rodez's away form is average, with 2 wins, 4 draws, and 4 losses, and they have conceded in each of their last 14 matches. This defensive frailty could be a significant factor in their upcoming match against Pau FC.
Head-to-Head Insights
Historically, Rodez Aveyron Football has had the upper hand in this fixture, winning 11 of the last 23 meetings compared to Pau FC's 7 victories. However, Pau FC has won 3 of the last 5 encounters, suggesting a shift in momentum. The most common result between these two sides is a 0-1 victory for Rodez, but with both teams scoring an average of 2 goals against each other, a high-scoring draw seems plausible.
Key Factors and Prediction
Pau FC's tendency to score 26% of their goals between the 31st and 45th minute, coupled with Rodez's 33% of goals coming in the final 15 minutes, indicates potential for both teams to find the net. Given Pau FC's home struggles and Rodez's defensive issues, a draw with both teams scoring appears to be the most likely outcome. This prediction is supported by the statistical likelihood of goals from both sides and their recent performances.
