Looking to extend their buffer at the top of the Ligue 2 table in midweek, AC Ajaccio will host a struggling Grenoble on Tuesday night.

Starting with the hosts, continuing to impress many across France with their displays at the back, AC Ajaccio find themselves leading the chase at the top of the table as we inch closer to the New Year. In their 18 Ligue 2 matchups so far this season, they have recorded 10 wins, five draws and just three defeats, scoring 19 and conceding eight in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 35 and opening the midweek fixtures holding a one-point buffer at the top of the standings, it should also be noted that Ajaccio hold the best-defensive tally in the division. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 1-0 victory against Le Havre on the road, Tuesday’s hosts have are unbeaten in their last four Ligue 2 contests, mustering 10 points. Likewise, it’s worth highlighting that Ajaccio have kept a clean sheet in each of those four straight outings.

As for the visitors, only continuing on what has been a hugely worrying run of form, Grenoble will firmly be looking over their shoulder at the drop zone. In their 18 Ligue 2 matchups so far this season, they have recorded six wins, three draws and nine defeats, scoring 17 and conceding 25 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 21, Grenoble open the midweek fixtures sat down in 15th and holding just a two-point buffer from dropping into the relegation zone. As for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 4-1 drumming against Amiens on the road, Tuesday’s guests have lost each of their last four outings on the spin. Likewise, conceding each of their previous three fixtures on the road by an aggregate score of 8-1, we’re backing a home victory here.
