Pau vs Nantes Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 7 November 2026
🔊 Nantes have turned a game around in Pau before: in January 2024, in the French Cup, they trailed at half-time but scored four goals after the break. Now the visitors need to turn their season around. Nantes are 15th and are ahead of 16th-placed Laval only on goal difference. Pau have won five matches in a row and sit fifth, in the play-off places for promotion to Ligue 1. Will the same scenario unfold as it did two years ago?
Head-to-Head
Nantes beat Pau 4-1 in their most recent meeting, in the Cup, despite trailing 0-1 at half-time.
Head-to-head statistics Pau - Nantes
Pau Team Overview
Pau beat Metz 3-1 in their last Ligue 2 match. The home side had 69% possession and twice as many shots, 18 to 9, but the teams were level on shots on target at 5-5.
Pau's run has been built on their attack: they have scored at least twice in each of their five consecutive wins. The coach, who has been in charge of Pau since January, called the run historic for the club. Their attack has more to offer, as the away match on 30 October showed: Pau beat Metz 3-1 despite missing a penalty. Pau rarely drop points at home: they have taken ten from a possible 12 in their last four Ligue 2 matches there.
Match Results: Pau
Nantes Team Overview
Nantes drew 1-1 with Clermont in their last Ligue 2 match.
Nantes have gone four matches without a win, and the draw in the last round was the most frustrating result of all. Grégory Poirier’s side drew 1-1 at home with Clermont, the only team in the league without a win. “Right now, that’s nowhere near enough,” admitted Frédéric Guilbert, who opened the scoring.
The visitors have been modest in attack: Nantes have scored more than two goals in just one of their last ten Ligue 2 matches. They have also suffered personnel losses ahead of the trip to Pau. Saïdou Sow injured his knee in that same match, while Riad Hachem has a problem with his adductor muscles. Both missed the team training session on Tuesday.

⭐ Editor's Pick
Pau are unbeaten in seven of their last eight Ligue 2 matches and have taken all 15 points available since mid-September. Even on their off days, the hosts lost by no more than one goal - as was the case in ten consecutive matches. Nantes have had little success away from home: only one of their last 13 away matches ended in victory. We expect the visitors to leave Pau without three points too, while the hosts extend their winning streak to six matches. Pick - Pau to avoid defeat.
Will this prediction come true?
