Le Mans receives Rodez Friday evening for a meeting of the 25th day of Ligue 2. Le Mans wants to take points to get out of the red zone while Rodez wants to keep his distance from it.
The return to Ligue 2 of Le Mans is not easy and even resembles an obstacle course. Indeed, the Sarthois are only 18th in the ranking, with 21 points, and have a length of delay on the first non-relegation. More worrying, they remain on 4 defeats in the last 5 days against Auxerre (0-1), Valenciennes (1-0), Nancy (1-1), Lorient (4-2) and Sochaux (1-0) the last week.
Rodez, for his part, also entered Ligue 2 last summer. But the club is doing better than its opponent of the day in this championship since it is in 14th place in the ranking with 6 more units on the clock. Since their last defeat against Châteauroux in early January, the Aveyronnais have tightened their bolts. After drawing a draw against Paris FC (0-0) and Valenciennes (1-1), they went on to win in Orléans (1-2) and shared the points again, with Nancy this time last week (1-1).
The staff for Le Mans vs Rodez
Le Mans still can not align the substitute goalkeeper Aymes and the important Diarra, Maziz, Musavu-King, Moussiti-Oko and Levêque, who are all prone to injuries.
Defender Peyrelade, experienced Poujol and the usual substitutes Maanane and Alégué are still missing for Rodez. The Ruffault manager could make him return for this meeting.
The probable compositions for Le Mans vs Rodez:
Le Mans: Boss – Veseli, Choplin, Lemonnier, Duponchelle – Confais, Boé-Kane, Fofana – Créhin – Kanté, Merdji.
Rodez: Desmas – Roche, Bardy, Chougrani – Henry, Tertereau, Douline, Boissier, Ouammou – Bonnet, Sané.
Last September, Rodez had largely won at home (4-1).
Rodez has lost 6 of his last 9 trips.
Le Mans has the worst defense in Ligue 2 while Rodez has only the 15th defense.
In the middle of the race for maintenance, Le Mans could take advantage of Rodez’s awkwardness on the road to win this match.
