Make a good impression before the World Cup. In Lyon as in Nice, the start of the season has not been easy due to disappointing results. Respectively eighth and ninth in the championship before facing each other on behalf of the 15th day, Friday November 11 at Groupama Stadium, the two candidates for Europe want to get closer to the top 6 to have a slightly quieter international break.
After a defeat in Marseille during which they barely existed (1-0), Les Gones must bounce back when Laurent Blanc had set the goal of scoring as many points as possible by the World Cup, without worrying of game identity. That’s good, Nice is one of Alexandre Lacazette’s favorite victims (seven goals against the Riviera club). But the Aiglons of Lucien Favre arrive in confidence. If everything is far from perfect on the pitch, the club has not lost since five games in Ligue 1 (3 wins and 2 draws). Who will manage to win to revive just before the cut? Follow our live.
