FC Annecy faces Rodez in Ligue 2's second round. The Savoyards seek to end their losing streak against the Aveyronnais. FC Annecy has not taken any points from 24 against Rodez in four full seasons of L2. Their last success dates back to 1990, 36 years ago. Ahmed Kashi, the captain of FC Annecy, hopes to help his teammates end this losing streak. "We must make sure to be unbeatable at home and almost invincible if we want to navigate this season," he said. Rodez, on the other hand, is undefeated in 2026 with 23 consecutive matches without defeat in L2. The men of Didier Santini had been eliminated without losing at Saint-Etienne, losing on penalties (0-0, 7-6 tab), in the second round of the accession playoffs and have resumed last Saturday by a home success against Laval (3-1), quickly reduced to ten. FC Annecy will recover its captain Ahmed Kashi, who returns from suspension, while the midfielder Clément Billemaz, expelled in Pau, is absent.
