In a stadium of the Unicorn undoubtedly full to bursting, Amiens SC (4th) must make up for his defeat in Nîmes last week against Saint-Etienne (19th) in a state of emergency.
Hinschberger: “Make as much effort as when you play your skin!”
“If we had managed to win in Nîmes, today we would be alone at the top of the standings… it may be anecdotal but when you have the chance in a season, or even in a career, to play the first place you have to make as much effort as when you play your skin!” plague Amiens coach Philippe Hinschberger ** who therefore logically expects a reaction from his team, even if he is very wary of the reaction of the Greens. “I expect a difficult match, paradoxically against a very good Saint-Etienne team which has the worst defense but one of the best attacks in the championship. Despite the suspension of their striker Jean-Philippe Krasso, on their offensive animation and their combined game, what they are able to do in front of goal will give us a hell of a job! It is a team that in any case inspires deep respect.“
Gurtner: ‘Continuing our streak at home’
On a wire including during its last victories against Dijon (2-1) or Rodez (1-0), Amiens SC must quickly put their feet back on the ground even if goalkeeper and captain Régis Gurtner estimate that “the team did not settle into a comfort zone because we had won the three previous matches in Nîmes. Now it’s true that if we don’t do everything together and we don’t put all the ingredients together to first stay solid defensively, we become any team capable of losing against anyone. It’s up to us to bounce back as we did after our two defeats in Metz and Caen. We are doing quite well at home where we have been undefeated since the start of the season, so we want to continue our series to stay in the top four or five places in the standings.”
