Predictions and Top Picks for Grenoble vs Pau

Grenoble is pushing strongly for the second spot and a direct place for the promotion into Ligue 1, while Pau has a different goal in mind.

Grenoble to Win

The home team has been steady in form for the last five matches losing only once and getting four victories with a draw game on their record. Those wins catapulted Grenoble to fifth place in the rankings with only three points of disadvantage compared to Sochaux and Bordeaux. Grenoble is one of only six teams who have managed to get into double digits when it comes to their win column. The hosts have ten wins on the record, while Pau is drifting at six. Grenoble is also tough to beat at home where they have lost only three times in eleven matches. This is also the number of away wins for Pau. Their only meeting this season ended in a goalless draw.

First Half Correct Score – 1-0

Grenoble has the third-best defense in Ligue 2, they allowed only 18 goals which is on average below one per game. On the other hand, Pau has been struggling to score goals being one of only three teams that haven’t surpassed the 20-goal mark for the season.

Under 2.5 Goals

Both teams are in the bottom six when it comes to the number of under 2.5 goals matches. The visiting side had 14 of those games while Grenoble had one more. Either team had four ‘under’ matches in their last five outings. Grenoble had five straight matches at home with fewer than three goals scored and eight in eleven total games. Pau has the same stat as an away team.

Match Preview and Team News for Grenoble vs Pau

Grenoble

After going through bankruptcy in 2011, Grenoble has reemerged from the lower divisions of the French football system to have its place safely in Ligue 2. They are going strong this season in trying to secure their promotion into Ligue 1. Bart Straalman, Arial Mendy, Manuel Perez, and Axel Ngando are injured for the home team ahead of the Pau clash.

Pau

The visiting team had their only successes in lower league football, and right now they are pushing hard to keep their status in Ligue 2 for next season. Pau has a five-point advantage over teams in the relegation zone but will need to improve their away form to get some all-important points where it matters the most. Team captain Antoine Batisse is one of four players injured at the moment. The rest are Pape Ibnou Ba, Mohamed Yattara, and Mayron George.
