Third and last game of January for Stade Lavallois which is up to date with its schedule, which is not the case for many clubs. After the reception of Annecy on Monday (1-0 victory), the Tango move to Villefranche Beaujolais, 4th. Mayenne footballers remain on four consecutive victories and on an incredible streak of six straight away wins. For the first time on the National podium, Stade Lavallois intends to stay there at the end of this 19th day. For that, it will not be necessary to lose in Villefranche. It remains to be seen whether the Mayenne footballers will be able to string together two victories in the same week. Over the past three seasons, Laval has never won at the Armand Chouffet stadium in Villefranche.
A month without a match for Goncalves
Central defender Bryan Goncalves, expelled Monday against Annecy, was fined three-game suspension. That was the scale given the referee’s report. The player, holder 16 times this season, will not be able to play again until February 18 (against Avranches, J22). A blow for the team because Bryan Goncalves is one of the major players of the Stadium.

A group of 17 players left for Villefranche by bus this Thursday. If Carlier and Seidou return to the group, on the other hand, defender Kevin Perrot does not appear there.
