Rodez will have been quite satisfied taking a point from their last match against Pau FC, which ran out a 2-2 draw.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 50%, while racking up 17 shots along the way, 8 of which were on target, in contrast to Pau FC, who had 11 shots on goal with 4 on target.  

While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 6 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 6, and leading to valuable points being dropped.   They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.  

It's been a mixed run of form at Stade Paul-Lignon for Rodez recently, with 2 wins and 2 defeats in their last 6 home games.

Last time out, Angers left content aftera 2-0 home win against Paris FC  In that game they had 47% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Paris FC who had 9 attempts and 3 on target.  

They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 4 and seen valuable points lost.  They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.  

They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.  

Himad Abdelli will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Rodez in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for Angers.
