Match Preview
Saint-Étienne hosts Rodez at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard on Saturday, 16 August, in a Ligue 2 clash that promises to be intriguing. The home side comes into this match with a solid form, having won three of their last five matches, including a recent victory that highlights their attacking prowess. In contrast, Rodez has struggled to find consistency, managing just two draws in their last five outings. This disparity in form could give Saint-Étienne the upper hand as they look to capitalize on their home advantage.
Historically, the head-to-head record favours Saint-Étienne, who have won three of the last ten encounters, with both teams scoring in three of those matches. Given the current odds, a bet on both teams to score (BTTS) at 1.61 could be a worthwhile consideration, especially as Rodez will be eager to break their scoring drought. With the stakes high for both teams, expect an engaging contest that could see Saint-Étienne maintain their momentum while Rodez seeks to turn their fortunes around.
