Paris FC
Pau
On February 7, Paris FC and Pau will face off in Ligue 2. Will this match produce goals, or will it be another low-scoring encounter? Here’s our detailed betting prediction.
Paris FC
The capital club had a strong start to the season, but they lost momentum and are now sitting second in the league, three points behind the leaders.In their last match, Paris FC secured a 1-0 away victory over Guingamp, a deserved win based on their performance. They have won three of their last four matches, showing strong form. Their main objective remains automatic promotion to Ligue 1, avoiding the playoff route.
Pau
Pau currently sits ninth in the table, six points behind the playoff spots, making their promotion an uphill battle. The team is unbeaten in their last six matches, with two wins and four draws. In their last match, they rescued a point against Laval thanks to a stoppage-time penalty, in a game where they played aggressively and arguably deserved more. Despite their good form, they remain inconsistent on the road.
