Nantes desperately need points on Friday, May 14 at 8:00 PM in the Ligue 2. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Nantes come into this fixture struggling badly (0W 3L in last 3). Laval, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (1W 1D 1L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Nantes and Laval have split their 10 meetings almost evenly (4W–2D–4W). Their last encounter ended in Nantes won 1–2.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Nantes a slight edge, but Laval are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
