Laval have had a rough run lately, with a couple of draws and a couple of losses in their recent matches, so they're not in great form. Rodez, on the other hand, have won three of their last five, including a strong away result, so they look the sharper team right now. Recent meetings between these two have mostly been tight and low-scoring, with a goalless draw and a 1-1 draw among them, though a few games did produce three or more goals.

Overall this looks like a close match rather than a one-sided affair, but Rodez's better recent form gives them the edge. Expect Rodez to come away with the win, though it could be a tight contest.
