Cannes – Rouen

Cannes host league leaders Rouen in what promises to be a clash of contrasting fortunes, with the home side sitting fifth on 10 points from two wins and four draws, while Rouen sit atop the table on 14 points after an unbeaten run of six games. The Canneans have been solid defensively, conceding just two goals and scoring seven, whereas Rouin’s attack has been prolific, netting twelve and also allowing only two. The gap in points and goal difference suggests Rouen will enter the game as favorites, but Cannes’ resilience in tight matches could make the encounter tighter than the standings imply. A win for Cannes would tighten the race at the top, while a Rout for Rouen would cement their dominance heading into the final stretch.
