PAU host Laval in Ligue 2. Both sides sit in the bottom half of the table and neither has strung together much consistency this season.

Form-wise it's been a mixed bag for both clubs, and their head-to-head over the past few seasons has swung one way then the other. That leaves plenty to weigh up before deciding whether either side has a real edge here.

Before that the head-to-head had gone back and forth, with Laval winning in September 2024 and PAU picking up wins either side of that. Recent meetings lean towards PAU, but it's not a one-sided rivalry historically.

PAU have won the last two meetings, but the longer record is fairly even.

Where they sit in Ligue 2

PAU are 10th with eight points from seven games, having won two, drawn two and lost three. Laval are down in 18th on five points from the same number of matches, with just a single win.

№ Team Played Win Draw Loss GF/GA Points
9 Dijon 7 2 3 2 10/10 9
10 PAU 7 2 2 3 6/6 8
11 Guingamp 7 2 2 3 10/12 8
16 Clermont Foot 7 0 6 1 4/6 6
17 Boulogne 7 0 5 2 3/5 5
18 Laval 7 1 2 4 8/14 5

PAU's goal difference is level at six for and six against, while Laval have shipped 14 goals in seven games against eight scored. That gap in defensive record is worth noting even at this early stage of the campaign.

Laval's leaky defence stands out more than PAU's own modest home record.

PAU's recent head-to-head edge and slightly better defensive numbers give them a shade of an edge on paper, but neither side has shown enough consistency to back with real confidence.

With no market reference to weigh against the evidence, this one's best watched rather than staked on.
