The overall return of 5 wins, 13 draws, and 13 defeats with a 26:43 goal balance points toward mixed form over their recent run. Going forward they depend heavily on M. Camara (8 goals), E. Clavreul (5 goals), M. Sellouki (4 goals), with creative support from M. Tchokounte (3 assists), T. Vargas (3 assists), M. Sellouki (2 assists), while defensively they have looked quite vulnerable. At home, they have returned 1 wins, 7 draws, and 7 losses, which indicates a weak split record. They are under visible pressure near the relegation zone. Stylistically, they tend to play with a more cautious and defensive approach. They are not at full strength, with P. Ouaneh unavailable, although the overall attacking core still looks largely intact.

Jean-Lambert (9 assists), Nolan Galves (6 assists), Mathis Saka (3 assists), while at the back they have looked fairly stable.

Their broader style still suggests balanced attacking football.
