Main facts
- Likely result: Versailles 1–1 Rodez, roughly 2 goals in total.
- Absences: Versailles 0, Rodez 0.
Versailles' four wins and one heavy night
Versailles come in on a strong run. Four wins in their last five matches in all competitions, with the only defeat a 1-0 loss at Caen on 7 November. They have scored 9 and conceded 3 across those five games, and the 4-0 home win over Aubagne on 31 October is the result that stands out.
What we like is that the wins have come both ways. Villefranche and Thionville Lusitanos both fell to 2-1 scorelines away from home, and the 1-0 win over Valenciennes at home on 3 October shows they can also win tight games. The problem for us is the Caen defeat, which is the most recent result on their record, and the price the market puts on them.
Who will win Versailles vs Rodez?
To reach this estimate we remove the margin from several bookmakers' odds. Nothing about the outcome is guaranteed.
Rodez's attack is the weak spot
Rodez's record over the same five-match window is much less convincing. Two wins, three defeats, and only 3 goals scored against 7 conceded. Their most recent game was a 1-0 defeat at Clermont Foot on 7 November, and before that came a 3-0 home defeat to Montpellier and a 2-0 defeat at Saint-Étienne.
The good results are there too. A 2-1 win at Dijon on 24 October and a 1-0 home win over Dunkerque on 30 October show that Rodez can win when they keep things under control. Still, they failed to score in three of their five matches, and that is the figure that makes us cautious about their attack. We think it is also why the price on them is more interesting than their recent results suggest.
No meeting history and no reported absences
We have no earlier meeting between these two clubs in our data, so there is no head-to-head pattern to lean on. Neither side has an absence reported. That leaves the form and the prices to decide the match, and we are happy with that.

Our tip for Versailles vs Rodez: Rodez +0
At +0 a Rodez win wins, a draw returns the stake, and a defeat loses. So the bet is really about Rodez not losing, and the stake comes back if the game finishes level. The settlement logic is kind to this line: a 1-1 result returns the stake, 0-1, 1-2 and 0-2 all win, and 0-0 returns the stake. Among the likeliest scores, only a 1-0 Versailles win loses.
Our reasons are short:
- The market puts this outcome at a 59% chance.
- The best available odds on it are 1.71.
- At 59% the bookmakers themselves see this handicap as the likelier winner.
Our other tip: Both teams to score
Our second tip is both teams to score at odds 1.80, with a chance of 53%. The main argument is that Versailles have failed to score in only one of their last five matches, so they are not a side that goes quiet for long. The expected total of about 3 goals fits a game where both sides find the net, and the market gives this bet 53% at best odds of 1.80.
The edge is small, so we would keep this stake modest. The settlement is less forgiving here: 1-1 and 1-2 win, while 0-1, 1-0, 0-2 and 0-0 all lose. A 1-1 draw or a Rodez win by 2-1 is what pays.

Other bets that fit the same picture
If you want to add something to the tips, Rodez +0.75 (Asian handicap) at odds 1.31, with a chance of 74%, goes with our main view. Half the stake sits on Rodez +0.5 and half on Rodez +1, so a defeat by exactly one goal returns part of the stake, which suits a side that has conceded 7 in its last five. Draw or Rodez (X2) at odds 1.35, with a chance of 71%, covers the same draw that our main tip protects. Over 1.5 goals at odds 1.29, with a chance of 73%, backs the expected total of about 3 goals without asking you to call a result. We prefer these three over anything that depends on Versailles winning.
