PARIS (Interstat) — Pau and Le Mans will look to build on recent positive results when they meet in a Ligue 2 fixture on Friday, Nov. 21, 2025.

The matchup at Stade du Hameau sees a Pau side coming off a 2-2 road draw with Guingamp on Nov. 8. Their form has been inconsistent, with a notable 3-1 victory over Clermont on Oct. 3 followed by a heavy 6-0 defeat at Saint-Etienne II on Oct. 28. Pau (3-5-4) has shown resilience at home, earning draws against Troyes and Bastia earlier in the season.

Visiting Le Mans (3-5-3) enters the contest unbeaten in its last four matches. The club is fresh from a 0-0 home draw with Red Star on Nov. 8, preceded by a 1-0 victory over Nancy on Oct. 31. This current run represents a significant turnaround after a difficult start to the campaign that featured a 5-0 home loss to Stade Briochin on Sept. 2.

According to the Interstat game simulator, the contest is projected to end in a 1-1 draw. The prediction reflects the recent defensive solidity of Le Mans and Pau’s ability to secure results at home.

Following this contest, Pau will next face Montpellier on the road on Dec. 6. Le Mans will look to continue its unbeaten streak as it navigates the heart of the French second-division schedule.
