A match for butter. Eliminated since the 6th day of the Europa League league phase (6 defeats), OGC Nice has nothing left to play in this competition. At their worst sportingly, the Niçois still found a little dignity during their last European outing, dominating the Dutch Go Ahead Eagles (3-1).
This small improvement, in a gloomy season for the Côte d’Azur club, continued in Nantes this weekend (1-4 victory). The 13th in Ligue 1 may have regained some color with the arrival on its bench of Claude Puel and the reinforcement of Elye Wahi.
Relieved of any pressure in the Europa League, the Aiglons can continue to gain confidence on the Ludogorets pitch. A lightness that the Bulgarians, 25th with 7 points, will not have, who are obliged to win to hope to compete in the play-offs.
Kick-off for the Ludogorets – Nice match is scheduled for 9 p.m. this Thursday, January 29. The meeting will be followed live on television on Canal + Live 2.
