VENDEE, France (Interstat) — Vendee Poire-sur-Vie Football hosts Angers U19 on Saturday, April 25, in a National 3 clash that finds both sides trending in opposite directions.

Vendee Poire-sur-Vie (VPF) enters on a three-match winning streak, outscoring opponents 7-0 in that span. Their most recent result, a 4-0 shutout at Vendee Fontenay Foot on April 18, extended a defensive run that has seen the club concede only twice in their last seven outings. VPF’s form at home has been particularly stingy; they have not lost since Jan. 10, when they drew Angers U19 0-0 in the reverse fixture.

Angers U19, however, arrives wounded. The visitors were hammered 3-0 by Union Foot de Touraine on April 18 — their second loss in three matches. That result followed a 3-0 win over Stade Poitevin U19 and a 2-1 victory against Guingamp U19, but inconsistency has plagued Angers all spring. The club has alternated wins and losses over its last eight games, with a 3-2 loss to Nantes U19 on March 28 and a 4-2 defeat of Saint-Lo Manche U19 on March 22 highlighting the volatility.

Saturday’s match marks the second meeting this season. The Jan. 10 stalemate ended scoreless — a result consistent with the tight margins typical in National 3. Interstat’s game simulator projects a 1-1 draw, a forecast that aligns with recent trends. Vendee Poire-sur-Vie’s disciplined defense faces an Angers attack that has scored 23 goals in its last 10 matches but allowed 12.

For VPF, striker output has been steady. The team scored four times in their last two wins and has tallied multiple goals in five of their past seven. Angers, meanwhile, has shown an ability to rebound from defeats quickly, posting a win after four of their last five losses.

Kickoff is scheduled for Saturday afternoon. Both teams remain in the middle tier of the National 3 table, with positioning at stake as the season enters its decisive stretch.
