Aubagne – Orleans

Aubagne host Orléans in what promises to be a decisive clash in the lower half of the table, with the home side languishing in 16th place on just four points from one win, one draw and four defeats, and a meagre -3 goal difference (3‑7). Orléans sit two spots above them in 14th, having amassed seven points after two victories, a draw and three losses, but they too have struggled offensively, managing only six goals while conceding eight. The two teams have already exchanged a narrow margin of points this season, and a win for Aubagne could be vital to stave off relegation worries, while Orléans will look to extend their modest lead and climb into the top half. Both sides will be eager to improve their goal differences, making the encounter likely to be tightly contested and potentially decisive for the final stretch of the campaign.
