Rodez had an excellent last season, where they finished fourth, but it seems that was an anomaly. In four seasons before the last one, they were among the relegation contenders, finishing between 14th and 17th place. They came back to reality this year and are once again among the relegation candidates. "The Blood and Golds" sit at 15th with 27 points from 25 matches - only two points away from relegation playout and three away from direct relegation places. However, after the Dunkerque game, they will have a fairly easy schedule and could easily move toward the middle of the league's table.
Dunkerque are playing a fantastic season and could easily be the best one in the club's history. After finishing 16th last year and barely escaping relegation, they are in 3rd place with 48 points from 25 matches. They already won two more points than last season, and there are 13 rounds left! They are now only one point away from second place, which leads directly to Ligue 1. If they succeed, that would be an incredible success for a small club from northern France.
Rodez vs Dunkerque pick: Dunkerque to (AH 0) win
Rodez have won only seven out of 25 games thus far - 28%. And it seems that as the season progresses, they are only getting worse and worse. In the last seven games, they have a terrible record of one win, one draw, and five losses!
On the other hand, Dunkerque are playing an absolutely great season. Besides their massive success in the Ligue 2, they are beating Ligue 1 teams in the Cup! They already eliminated Lille and Brest and secured the Semi-Finals. Unfortunately, they will face PSG there. But those games against the Ligue 1 teams confirm that their good results in Ligue 2 are definitely not a fluke. Right now, they are on a six-game winning streak if we include those two cup games.
In the first h2h game, Dunkerque won 1:0. Considering all the above, we firmly believe that the visitors are a lot closer to winning the upcoming match.

Rodez team news
After a 3:1 loss to Lorient in the previous round, coach Didier Santini spoke to the media. He said they had a good first half where they played to win. In the second half, they only played "not to lose," and that backfired on them.
The players who missed the previous games with injuries should remain sidelined - Joris Chougrani, Sebastien Cibois, Raphael Lipinski, and Aurelien Pelon.
