We said: Pau 1-3 Caen

Although Pau will be fighting to avoid relegation, there is a clear gulf in quality between these two sides and we expect Caen to end the season on a high by securing a third victory in four matches. Moulin and his players will sense an excellent opportunity to lay down a marker for next season, and they will not be interested in handing out any favours to their opponents. Read more.
