Preview for Match Grenoble vs FC Annecy

As Ligue 2 continues to unfold, the upcoming clash between Grenoble and FC Annecy on Friday, 19 September 2025, at the Stade des Alpes is poised to be a thrilling encounter. Both teams have faced a challenging start to the season, each garnering five points from their opening five matches. Grenoble, currently positioned 13th in the league table, boasts a record of one win, two draws, and two defeats, with a goal tally of 5:6. Their home form is slightly more encouraging, with one victory and one draw from two matches played at the Stade des Alpes.

Conversely, FC Annecy sits just below them in the 14th position, also with one win, two draws, and two defeats, but with a less favorable goal difference of 4:6. The away form has been particularly troublesome for Annecy, as they have managed only one win while suffering two defeats in their travels. The historical context of this matchup adds another layer of intrigue; the last direct meeting saw FC Annecy emerge victorious with a convincing 3:1 win.

Both teams will be eager to secure a positive result to climb the table and build momentum as they aim for a more comfortable position in the league standings. The match promises to be a tactical battle, with both managers—Franck Rizzetto for Grenoble and Laurent Guyot for Annecy—looking to implement their strategies effectively.

Given the recent performances, both teams will seek to capitalize on any defensive lapses from their opponents, making this matchup critical not just for points, but also for confidence moving forward.
