The hosts to get the points
The hosts will be the team to beat in this game and we fancy them to bag all points in this fixture. They have never lost to Rodez in the five meetings that have taken place between the two teams. And while three draws were recorded in those encounters, Rodez is currently battling a poor form that will make it difficult to salvage points away from home against an in-form team opponent.
The hosts to open the scoring
We are tipping Sochaux to score the first goal in this game. They have the home support and a better form. The desire for a place in the top three remains alive and it is possible if they can win at least half of the remaining nine games. The hosts were the first team to score in four of the five meetings they have had with Rodez.
Victory for Sochaux in first half
We are not only backing Sochaux to score first or win this game full-time but also be the side to go ahead at the interval. The hosts are ranked 7th on home run while Rodez is 9th on away record.
Sochaux vs Rodez Preview and Match Analysis
This will be the sixth meeting between Sochaux and Roze, a game expected to generate a lot of interest given that Sochaux is aiming for a promotion playoff spot. The hosts need a win to widen the gap between them and sixth placed Le Havre to ten points. Such an outcome will be good enough to provide Sochaux with enough cushion against Le Havre.
On the flipside, Rodez needs points to avoid getting relegated. The visitors are just above relegation zone. Notably, Rodez had never defeated Sochaux in the previous encounters where they lost twice and settled for a point on three occasions.
