Caen – Villefranche

Caen head into the clash on home turf sitting second in the table with 12 points from four wins and two losses, boasting a solid 12‑5 goal ratio. Their opponents, Villefranche, languish in 17th place, having collected just four points after one victory, one draw and four defeats, and a worrying 5‑13 deficit on the scoresheet. The disparity in form and firepower suggests a clear advantage for the Normands, who will be eager to extend their unbeaten run and tighten their grip on the top spots. For Villefranche, the match offers a vital chance to claw back into the safety zone, but they will need to overturn a stark statistical gulf to threaten Caen’s ambitions.
