Sochaux come into this one in a rough patch. They have lost a couple of their recent games and drawn several others, so they have not been winning much lately. PAU have also struggled, losing three of their last five, though they did grab a win in their most recent match. Neither team is in great form, so this looks like a tight, even contest.

When these two have met before, the games have mostly been close rather than high-scoring, with a few draws and some narrow results. Given how both sides are playing right now, this one seems likely to stay close, and a draw feels like the most reasonable outcome.
