Throughout last season Nancy fought the descent and that was quite uncomfortable.

In its last 10 away matches Le Mans records 4 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses. The team allowed goals to the opponent in 7 of the last 10 games, so his defense needs to improve, but his attack has scored regularly, as he scored goals in 7 of the last 10 games.
