Valenciennes, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-1 away defeat by Annecy will have left the Valenciennes squad feeling a little deflated. In that game they had 54% possession and managed 6 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Annecy who had 16 attempts and 12 on target.
Having scored just 1 goal in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Ahmed Kantari where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table. Hoever, he will still have one eye on his defence which has shipped 9 in the same period. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games, and over the course of the season they have failed to score in 9 of their [%HT_Games_Season_Home% games played at Stade du Hainaut.
A win for Valenciennes is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 9 games.
Pau FC, Recent FormWith a 1-1 draw in their last match against Ajaccio, Pau FC had to settle for a share of the points. In that game they recorded 59 % of the possession, with 16 attempts on goal, 6 on target. Their opponents found the target on 1 of their 3 shots on goal.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 9 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 7 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 25 of their 31 games.
It's been a mixed run of away form for Pau FC recently, with 2 wins and 2 defeats in their last 6 games on the road.
On an individual basis, Moussa Sylla is giving Pau FC's travelling fans plenty to shout about having scored 3 goals in the squad's last 6 away games in the league.
The last meeting between these 2 teams in the league resulted in an unsurprising 3-1 win for Pau FC.
The last 3 matches between VAFC and Les Maynats show that VAFC have let in at least one goal on each occasion.
In this away league fixture, Pau FC has not won in the last 3 times they have played VAFC at Stade du Hainaut.
With no real injury worries, VAFC manager Ahmed Kantari will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Pau FC manager Nicolas Usaï has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
