Restart a winning streak. This is the mission of US Orléans this Friday in Bastia-Borgo. Undefeated for eight games, Nicolas Saint Ruf and his teammates fell against FC Villefranche-Beaujolais (1-2). A result that broughta lot of frustration and disappointment in the group this week“, according to the admission of Xavier Collin, the Orleans coach. In Corsica, during the 25th day of National this Friday, the USO will therefore have to transform this frustration into motivation to bring back three precious points for the rest of the championship.
The Loiretans, tenth in the standings, are at a crossroads ten days before the end of the season. They are counting 11 points behind the thirdBourg-en-Bresse, and 11 ahead of the first relegation player, Chambly. The result of the meeting could therefore condition the rest of the Orleans adventures.
Loïc Goujon back from suspension, not Hicham Benkaïd
For this move, Xavier Collins called up 17 players. The Orleans coach can count on Loic Goujon, back after his suspension for an accumulation of yellow cards. Uncertain after an alert on his painful calf, the central defender Cedric Yambere is good displacement. Hicham Benkaid for his part, he is serving his third and last game of suspension after his red card received against Stade Briochin. the attacker Karl Fabianrecalled for the meeting against Villefranche, is not called up.
An eye on Bastia-Borgo
After a cataclysmic start to the seasonthe Corsicans won their first success in December against to Mans, before chaining results in sawtooth. Despite their penultimate place, Laurent Rossi’s players are only six points behind the first non-relegation player, Sete, with one match less. All hopes of maintenance are therefore permitted, especially as Bastia-Borgo is beginning to have a itchy reputationafter his good results against teams that are playing for the rise in Ligue 2: victories against Chateauroux (2-0) and Sedan (3-1) and draw against Concarneau (1-1) and Bourg-en-Bresse (0-0).
One more reason to be wary of this Corsican team. She didn’t no longer lost at home since November 5 last and a defeat against Cholet (1-2).
