Nantes vs Ajaccio Head-to-Head and Key Numbers You’ve got to back to a Ligue 2 game in 2009 to find the last time Ajaccio defeated Nantes, as their last five meetings have ended in four wins for Nantes and a draw. Their last victory at the Stade de la Beaujoire came in 2005. Nantes have only lost once in their last 10 home games in Ligue 1, suffering a 0-3 defeat to Paris St. Germain in September. Essentially, their home form is as good as any other Ligue 1 side.

Only bottom side Angers have lost more games than Ajaccio have done thus far in the 2022-23 season, with Ajaccio having nine defeats to Angers’ 10. Interestingly, though, Ajaccio have won more games than their hosts this season. Ajaccio’s Romain Hamouma is one of just five Ligue 1 players to have been sent off on two occasions this season. Despite their low positions in Ligue 1, both Nantes and Ajaccio haven’t been too bad in defense this season. Both sides have conceded 22 goals, which is a total less than eight other Ligue 1 clubs.
With SC Bastia facing potential forced relegation this summer—for the second consecutive year—because of financial irregularities, as reported by Le Parisien (h/t Get French Football News), Corsican representation in Ligue 1 could depend on Gazelec’s results against PSG and FC Lorient.

If Laurent Blanc’s men decide to even remotely tap into their immense potential, then they could easily wipe the floor with Ajaccio at Stade Ange Casanova. However, it is unlikely the capital club will be fully focused on beating their Corsican hosts on Saturday. With Gazelec fighting for their lives, their sheer determination to get a point or better to count towards survival could be enough to overcome a disinterested PSG.

Nantes vs Ajaccio Odds - Sunday November 13 2022
AFP/Getty ImagesPlayer to WatchAlthough he is not expected to start against PSG, Gazelec’s Gregory Pujol is a player to keep an eye on—if Laurey brings him off the bench. At 36 years of age, the Frenchman may soon be close to retirement. However, as he showed with a brilliantly well-taken goal just moments after coming on as a half-time substitute in the 2-1 loss away at Lyon last weekend, he still knows how to find the back of the net. In a relegation battle, you need players capable of scoring goals regularly and Pujol has shown that he can do that over a long and storied career in Ligue 1. It would be a fantastic achievement for the former Valenciennes FC, CS Sedan Ardennes and FC Nantes man if he could score against PSG to help secure a point or more, which ultimately helped to save Ajaccio from an immediate return to Ligue 2.
