A victoire
more than convincing against Amiens last weekend (3-0). A six-game unbeaten streak since the arrival of new coach Pascal Dupraz. A match against another relegated. And time is running out, three days before the end of the championship. It is an understatement to say that moving the DFCO to Nîmes is important for maintainingSaturday May 20, 2023 for the 36th day of Ligue 2 (7 p.m.).
Rocchia and Jacob still absent
Pascal Dupraz will still be deprived of two players: Valentin Jacob et Christopher Rocchia. “Christopher Rocchia is more advanced than Jacob and should be competitive for the next game”informs Pascal Dupraz in a pre-match press conference. “Jacob we will see at the beginning of the week”. Pour Bryan Soumare on the other hand, “It’s rather positive, we put it back as a precaution”. He should be part of the group, unlikeIdrissa Camarastill injured (knee).
The dynamic is Dijon
The DFCO can keep hope in the maintenance mission, despite the two points behind the first non-relegation player (Laval) three days from the end. Dijon remains on a series of six consecutive games without losing, since the arrival of new coach Pascal Dupraz (three wins, three draws). The latest success at home against Amiens (3-0)
, was more than convincing and had everything from the most successful performance of the season. With bonus a popular fervor
found.
Leaders (Le Bihan, Congré, Reynet) lead by example, artists (Soumaré, X. Silva) fully express themselves and yesterday’s second best (Ahlinvi, Fofana) finally reveal themselves. Without forgetting the “end of game players” dear to Dupraz, the substitutes, decisive, like Marley Aké, author of two goals (Sochaux, Amiens) coming off the bench. The tight classification (Laval with two points in advance, Annecy and Pau with three points) is an additional argument, because the more candidates there are for maintenance, the more missteps are possible.
“It’s the 7th act and we are still in the race, but the others are fueling too, we must only think of ourselves, not think that the opposing team is inferior to us, warns Dupraz. The players will be serious, we have to approach it with a lot of conviction, we have to feel the progress, there is room to do better in the game than against Amiens. By reproducing removed productions, we control what we want to do. We have to get rid of the stake!”.
The last chance match for Nîmes … and again
Relegated in 2021, the same year as DFCO, Nîmes Olympique is even worse off than DFCO to stay in Ligue 2. 19th, the “Crocos” are five points behind Dijon. Especially after their defeat against Caen
and Annecy’s victory against Le Havre on Monday, they are seven points behind Laval, the first non-relegation player. In the event of a Dijon victory, relegation could be ratified as of this Saturday for the Nîmes. And even in the event of a draw or a victory…
“We were on the 30th day the dunces of the class, we shared the last place with Niort, recalls Pascal Dupraz. There will be no overconfidence, we will not let our guard down, wherever we go.”
