It is in an electric context that OGC Nice travels to Porto this Thursday for its fifth outing in this campaign.
Europa League (kick-off at 6:45 p.m.). The Riviera club is one of the worst performers in this phase of the League with 4 defeats in as many matches in the competition this season. Worse, Nice remains in 16 matches without the slightest victory in the European Cup. A terrible series which damages the image of the Gym.
And it is not this trip to Porto, in the lair of one of the most formidable stables on the plateau, which should reassure these Aiglons whose wings have been cut for a long time. If it is not going through the most prosperous period in its history, the Portuguese club remains a heavyweight in the competition, with its European experience. In the Nice ranks, tension rose a notch between Franck Haise and his group. A response is expected this Thursday evening.
The expected compositions
FC Port : Costa – Costa, Prpic, Kiwior, Zaidu – Froholdt, Rosario, Veiga – Pepê, Samu Aghehowa, W. Gomes.
OGC Nice : Diouf – Mendy, Bah, Oppong – Clauss, Vanhoutte, Louchet, Abdi – Diop – Carlos, Boga.
Where to watch the match?
This Europa League match between FC Porto and OGC Nice will be broadcast this Thursday on Canal + Sport, from 6:45 p.m. It will also be possible to watch it on the group’s streaming platform, MyCanal.
