Introduction to the Martigues vs Rodez betting tip 2024/2025

Martigues last match

Martigues comes from a draw in the last match played. On that occasion the opponent was Ajaccio, in a match valid for Ligue 2, and the match ended 1-1. Coach T. Laurey's team lined up with this formation: 4-1-4-1.

The favorite to win the match was the rival team, that's why the draw (odd 3.10) in the end can be considered a positive result.

Martigues performance was certainly not typical of a top team, but some players still left a good mark on the match. Oucasse Mendy, with an excellent sense of position and a precise foot, was one of the best players, and he gave a big contribution to the team to leave the field undefeated.

Rodez last match

On the other hand, the visiting team arrives at this match after a victory in the last round. In a dispute valid for Ligue 2, Rodez, who used a 5-3-2 formation, faced the Grenoble Foot 38 team with a final score of 2-1.

The odds for the home team to win before the match were 2.40, so it was logical to expect a fairly even match.

Martigues

Ligue 2 leaderboard now

With 5 points won, Martigues is in 17th place on the leaderboard, which leaves the team in the Relegation zone. The team's campaign so far is 1 win against 5 losses, plus 2 draws.

In the 9th round, the team is having an 1 point advantage over the Troyes team, which is placed just below in 18th place. It also has 1 point less than Rodez team that is in the 16th place.

Martigues analysis

At the end of matchday 8 we see that Martigues conceded more goals than they scored, with 19 goals conceded and 6 scored.

The performances of Martigues in recent matches suggest that they are having difficulty scoring goals, with a low number of goals and a high number of matches where they failed to score. This indicates that their attacking play is not creating enough quality chances and needs improvement.

With 37.38% of ball possession averaged per game over the course of this league, Martigues can hardly be said to be the kind of team that imposes its textures on the field. However,in the next match of the season against Rodez they will have to come down with a whole different attitude on the pitch, and try to build more scoring chances.

One of the team's signings for the season still seems to be in a slow pace of adaptation. Simon Falette played another underwhelming game in the club's last appearance, against Ajaccio. He failed to show the expected security and did not help Martigues to come out with the victory.

Best goalscorer from Martigues

At the individual level in the team's offensive line, we have to highlight Milan Robin. With 2 goals on his own, the Midfielder has been instrumental in helping the Martigues team achieving several victories this season.

Rodez

Ligue 2 leaderboard now

Rodez arrives in this game with 6 points, and in 16th place in the Ligue 2, having won twice in total and lost 6 times, making a total of 0 draws.

Rodez analysis

Rodez counted 9 goals scored and 13 conceded at the end of Ligue 2 day number 8.

An average of 4 shots on goal per game is certainly not exciting for Rodez, which is therefore a team that does not score many goals, nor does it particularly engage the goalkeepers. This will be an important factor to consider when evaluating the match.

Rodez is a more offensive team than Martigues, having 707 attacks vs. 650 from Martigues, having scored 9 times, in comparison, Martigues converted into goal 6 times.

Increasingly more in tune with his teammates, Noah Cadiou, who arrived at the club this season, made another fine performance in the team's last game. The midfielder was very good in the game against Grenoble Foot 38, being a key piece for Rodez.

Best goalscorer from Rodez

Individually, the team's most offensive player in the competition so far is Timothee Nkada. He has scored 3 times in the current season and has helped Rodez come out with a positive result on several occasions.
