Here, Angers SCO was the winner, defeating AC Ajaccio 3-1. Yet another very watchable match was Paris FC's game where they managed to beat SM Caen 0-1. Here, on Oddspedia, we provide you with a detailed overview and statistics of the upcoming Ligue 2 matchday in France– detailed statistics for each game, the teams and their current form.
Which are the top matches to look out for
Probably the most anticipated match will be AJ Auxerre vs SM Caen on 03/16/2024 at 14:00. AJ Auxerre has the upper hand in this match, since they are currently on the first place in the table. However, they still want to make sure to keep their rank. And since neither of them won their last match, they should both be eager to fight for 3 points in their upcoming game. Since AJ Auxerre won two games and lost 1 of their last 5, it will be interesting to see how the team performs in this match. Chances for SM Caen are quite good, concidering they've won most of their recent matches.
Another match fans are looking forward to takes place on 03/11/2024 at 19:45. Here, Grenoble Foot (currently in 6th place) will face Stade Lavallois MFC (4th place). Both of them didn't manage to score 3 points in their last match. Looking at the teams' performance in their last matches can also be an indicator about their current form: Grenoble Foot didn't perform well in the latest matches and lost the majority of them. The season was a bit better for Stade Lavallois MFC lately, however, most of their recent games ended in a draw.
People are also excited to see Angers SCO fight against Amiens SC. They currently are in 2nd place and 10th place, making their match interesting to watch. Both will have to step up their game and show their fans what they're made of, since none of them won their last match. You can also look at their recent performance to get an idea of their chances in the upcoming match: Amiens SC had a mediocre seaon lately, they only managed a draw in most of their recent matches. Of their last five games, Angers SCO lost 3, so they will have to improve their performance to win this match.

Ligue 2 Table
AJ Auxerre are currently leading the table with 52 points and a goal differencial of 24 (51 scored and 27 received). So far, they have won 14 out of their 28 matches–but since they're only leading by 2 points, Angers SCO (2/50pts) could take the lead this week, if they win their match against Amiens SC (10/39pts). Of course, AJ Auxerre would also have to lose their match. In any case, players will give their best to help their team win. But not only the top of the table has some interesting matches to offer–teams in the lower half also have to fight hard to stay in their league and not finish the season in last place. If they fight hard, Valenciennes FC could actually stay in the league, since they're only 16 points behind SC Bastia (16/33pts), who are in need of points to not face relegation.
The biggest positive change in position, compared to the last matchday, has been made by Paris FC (11/38 points), who moved up three positions and are now in 11th place in the league. On the other side, AC Ajaccio (9/39 points) made the biggest loss in positions, losing a total of three ranks.
