Canet Roussillon desperately need points on Saturday, Jan 16 at 6:00 PM in the National 1 – Group C. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Istres come into this fixture out of form (0W 2L recently). Canet Roussillon travel struggling badly (0W 3L in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Verdict: Little separates these two on form or history. Home advantage could be the deciding factor — a narrow Istres win or a draw looks most likely.
