Valenciennes and Orleans meet on Saturday, Nov 7 at 2:45 PM in the Ligue 3.

Valenciennes come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). Orleans, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 0D 1L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Valenciennes head into this on the back of a defeat, while Orleans arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

In 10 previous meetings, Valenciennes lead 4–6 with 0 draws. Their last encounter ended in Orleans won 1–0.

Verdict: Orleans's quality should tell even on the road. Valenciennes will push, but the visitors have too much class. Orleans to win.
