Be careful not to bury them too soon. Stuck in last place in the standings since the first day of the championship, the Poudriers are ending the season like a cannonball. Determined to prove that their place is in Nationale 2, they have four victories in their last five matches. Thanks to this series and obvious progress in all aspects, the Yellow and Black have “a great end to the season” rejoiced their captain Maxime Ballade after the victory against Nantes Rezé (69-91).
A final stretch that the Poudriers approach with seriousness and ambition. With three home games, the schedule is rather favorable to them. We will have to win these three receptions and why not achieve an exploit in the runner-up, the ESMS, to maintain hope. The framework is set. The Girondins intend to win everything to maintain themselves.
But it is customary in sport to remember that you should never ignite too quickly. This Saturday, Niort intends to come away with honors. If the Poudriers beat them in the first leg (68-76, last December 2), the Niortais no longer wear the same face. In addition to being the best defense in the group, they have only lost three times in their last ten meetings, putting themselves almost safe for survival. If they manage to break the Niort barrier, there is no doubt that the evening will be beautiful for Saint-Médard, who will have a little more freedom to dream.
The game
Saint-Médard-en-Jalles (14th/29 pts) – Niort (9th/33 pts), this Saturday at 8 p.m. at the Cosec hall in Saint-Médard-en-Jalles.
