Who from OGC Nice or AS Saint-Étienne will play in Ligue 1 next season? Will the Aiglons return to Ligue 2 for the first time since the 2001-2002 financial year? And the Greens regain the elite just one year after leaving it? Response this Friday evening (8:45 p.m.) at the end of the return barrage.
The suspense is still total between the two teams, back to back after a very poor first leg (0-0) during which no shot was on target. A first in the history since the creation of this format.
Claude Puel and Nice will be able to benefit from the return of Elye Wahi, suspended last Tuesday but authorized to play the match despite a call-up to Ivory Coast for the 2026 World Cup. Conversely, Hicham Boudaoui is out due to a concussion protocol occurring following a collision in the face with Stéphanois Abdoulaye Kanté.
Nice-ASSE, the probable lineups
Nice: Diouf – Mendy, Dante (cap.), Oppong – Clauss, Coulibaly, Sanson, Bard – Cho, Wahi, Diop
ASSE: Larsonneur (cap.) – Ferreira, Le Cardinal, Bernauer, Pedro – Boakye, Kanté, Gadegbeku – Cardona, Stassin, Davitashvili
