Ajaccio, Recent FormAjaccio will be reasonably happy to come away from their match against Amiens with a 0-0 draw and a valuable point.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 4 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 9 and seen valuable points lost. They have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games, and they have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 games at home.
Ajaccio will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 home games, but having managed just 2 wins leaves them plenty of room for improvement. The early part of the season has provided an unusually high number of draws for L 'Ours, with 4 draws in 8 league games.
Bastia, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for Bastia supremo Régis Brouard after sustaining a heavy 4-1 home loss to Pau FC.
He is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 13 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 5 goals scored. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They have been on a bad run over their last 6 league matches, with 4 defeats and only 1 victory, so they know full well that a change of form is needed if they want to begin moving up the league table.
It ended in disappointment and a 0-1 defeat for Ajaccio last time they met Bastia in the league, with I Lioni di Furiani defying the odds to take the win.
I Lioni di Furiani will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 5 encounters with Ajaccio. Ahead of this match, Ajaccio won't like the look of their goal stats, having failed to secure a goal in their last 2 meetings against I Lioni di Furiani. L 'Ours have struggled to break down the Bastia defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams, Bastia has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Ajaccio in 10 games.
With no real injury worries, Ajaccio manager Olivier Pantaloni will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Bastia manager Régis Brouard has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
