Chambery Savoie host St. Raphael in Starligue on 30 October 2026, a mid-table clash between two sides fighting to climb the standings.

Both teams enter this fixture off the back of mixed recent form, setting up a competitive encounter where defensive solidity could prove decisive.
Team form
Chambery Savoie
Chambery have shown resilience in their last five outings, winning two and drawing two of their five matches. They defeated Provence Aix 34-33 at home on 18 October in a tight contest, and earlier secured a road victory against CSM Bucuresti 33-25 in European competition. Two draws—35-35 at Chartres and 25-25 at Montpellier—suggest a side capable of matching their opponents but struggling to find the cutting edge. Over this five-game run, they have averaged 31.0 goals scored and 30.6 conceded per match, indicating an attack-minded approach with vulnerabilities at the back.
St. Raphael
St. Raphael have endured a tougher spell, winning just one of their last five matches. That victory came at home against Cesson Rennes-Metropole (37-34), but they have since lost to Toulouse 31-35, Hammarby 26-34, Elverum 32-36, and Caen 30-33. The away loss to Toulouse on 16 October exemplifies their current struggles. Defensively, St. Raphael have conceded 34.4 goals per game over this stretch—a concerning rate that reflects structural issues. Their scoring average of 31.2 per match shows they can generate offence, but leaky defence has cost them dearly.
Head-to-head
No previous meetings between these sides are available in the record.
Key factors
Chambery's home advantage is significant; they have won their last two home matches and drawn two of their last three at this venue. St. Raphael's away form is troubling—they have lost four of their last five on the road and concede heavily in such fixtures. Chambery's ability to score around 31 goals per game at home, combined with St. Raphael's defensive fragility (34.4 conceded per match recently), suggests the hosts should find space to attack. However, St. Raphael's offensive output (31.2 per game) means they will threaten on the counter. The match will likely turn on whether Chambery can tighten their defence—they have conceded 30.6 per game—and prevent St. Raphael from exploiting transitions.
Prediction
Chambery are the favourite here. They hold a four-point lead in the standings, have superior home form, and face an away side in poor defensive shape. St. Raphael's recent record on the road is particularly weak, with four losses in five away matches. While St. Raphael can score, their defensive vulnerabilities make them vulnerable to Chambery's home-based attacking rhythm. The hosts' recent wins and draws suggest tactical stability that St. Raphael currently lack.
Chambery Savoie are favoured to win this encounter. Expect a competitive match with both sides capable of scoring freely, but the hosts' home advantage and St. Raphael's defensive struggles should tip the balance in Chambery's favour. A close result is likely given the attacking nature of both teams.
