US Quevilly-Rouen Métropole (Home)
- David Carre took over at Quevilly in July 2024, and has so far prioritised shoring up the team's defense and settling the squad on the pitch.
- Quevilly’s compact, low block set up has been tough to break down of late, but the cost is an inability to break teams down when they sit deep.
- They have drawn back-to-back 0-0 matches in their last two and currently sit in 15th place in National 2025/2026 with just 11 points from 17 games.
- US Quevilly-Rouen Métropole have not won in 7 home games in National 2025/2026 (4 draws, 3 defeats) and have failed to score in their last 2.
Villefranche Beaujolais (Away)
- Pujo’s team are likely to press high up the field, sit players wide in attack and will look to control the ball and territory.
- They are also likely to have a focal point up top in Babacar Leye, who has netted 3 goals in 11 National 2025/2026 games this season.
- Villefranche is yet to win on the road in National 2025/2026, 1 draw and 6 defeats after 7 games (13 goals conceded).
Head-to-Head
- The last two meetings between these sides are split evenly, with each team claiming one win.
- Quevilly have not won their last home match against Villefranche, an additional motivation for this clash.
- Villefranche have been in slightly better form than their hosts in recent weeks (W2, D1, L2 from last 5).
- They will also go into this game off the back of a confidence boosting 2-1 home win against SC Aubagne Air Bel, while Quevilly are winless in their last 5 (D2, L3).
Key Players
-
Players to watch:
- Raouf Mroivili has netted 2 goals in his last 5 matches for Villefranche and brings an energy and threat that they will look to exploit on Friday.
- Achille Anani has been Quevilly’s biggest offensive threat this season, with 5 goals in 12 National 2025/2026 appearances.
Betting Insights
With the hosts priced at 2.2 , the visitors at 3.33 and the draw at 2.9 , this looks a good time to take a chance on the under 2.5 goals market at 1.56 .
Prediction
- This game should be interesting with the contrast in styles, compact containment vs high press and wide attackers.
- However, both sides have struggled in their respective home and away games this season, with Villefranche yet to earn a win on the road.
