Rouen vs Chateauroux Prediction & Betting Tips (20 September)

This has to be one of the most one-sided rivalries in the National, with Chateauroux enjoying four consecutive victories over Rouen as part of a 17-match unbeaten run against their near-neighbours in the top-flight. Their coach charges hardly come into this contest in the greatest of shape either, having lost seven times in eight league games.

Each of the previous 15 Rouen home games has delivered a minimum of one successful strike, with the net bulging 44 times in total across these fixtures. Given that 15 of the most recent 18 Chateauroux away matches in the second tier of National have also served up two goal or more, it would come as a surprise were this contest to finish with less than two goals.

Rouen home games in the National have certainly been full of excitement recently, with both teams on target in 10 of their previous 15 encounters. Chateauroux are no strangers to hitting the back of the net on their travels either, doing so in 15 of their last 18 trips at this level, so goals are expected at both ends when the sides lock horns.
