The French Ligue 1 championship starts this Friday with a good opposition between Nice and Lille.
Here we go again ! This Friday evening and after a wait of three months, the French championship restarts. And as a starter we have a right to a nice duel between candidates for Europe, OGC Nice and Lille OSC.
Nice and Lille, same fight
At the Allianz Riviera Stadium, the confrontation between the Aiglons and the Dogues promises to be interesting. On the one hand, there will be a formation on the Riviera whose resources have been reduced but which is worth the detour, with in particular the arrival of a new Italian coach at its head (Farioli). And on the other, we have the Northerners, who were able to keep their coach from last season (Paulo Fonseca) and the principles that go with it.
Engaged in C4 this month of August, Lille is supposed to be more advanced in its summer preparation. But this is in no way a guarantee of a good start and OM saw it this week in the Champions League qualifiers.
Both aiming for the first third of the table, Nice and Lille would like to start the exercise on the right foot, in particular to build up the confidence necessary for the future. This bodes well for a good summer tussle, in a Nice enclosure which already promises to be boiling.
The probable compositions of Nice – Lille
Nice: Bulka; Dante, Todibo, Atal, Bard; Sanson, Ndayishimiye, K. Thuram; Boga, Laborde, Moffi.
