Rodez – Grenoble

Rodez’s home ground proved no sanctuary as they slipped to a 0‑1 defeat at the hands of Grenoble, leaving both clubs level on seven points. The hosts, sitting 11th with two wins, a draw and three losses from six games and a narrow –1 goal difference, were unable to overturn their recent form. Grenoble, now 12th, matched Rodez’s points tally but sit a little better defensively, having conceded ten while scoring seven. The result also tipped the head‑to‑head balance this season in Grenoble’s favour, as they now hold the sole victory in their two‑match series.
