PAU sit 15th in the Ligue 2 on 5 points from 6 matches, having scored 4 and conceded 6. The model rates their attack at 0.62× the league average and their defence at 1.60× goals conceded, where 1 is average and a lower defensive figure is better — below average at both ends by these numbers.

That is 0.83 points a match, scoring 0.67 and conceding 1.00 per game across 1 win, 2 draws and 3 defeats. That leaves them 10 points behind Saint Etienne at the top, in a table of 18. Among the 18 rated sides in the division that is the 10th-best attack and the 13th-best defence. They scored in 3 of those 5 and kept 1 clean sheet. Next they host Dunkerque in the Ligue 2 on 18 September 2026, a match the model gives them 41%.
