Fourth in the ranking, theOGC Nice has made its way into the top 5 of Ligue 1. The Riviera club even managed the small feat of overtaking Lille in the rankings. But LOSC, which is only a small point away, remains close in its rearview mirror.
Nice will therefore have to avoid returning from Lille with a defeat to stay ahead of their evening opponent, Friday, in a good display at the top of the table counting for the 18th day of Ligue 1. A match that Franck Haise approaches with very laudatory terms on the LOSC.
Haise impressed by Lille
“ This is the first big shock, but the first three matches of 2025 were not easy matches either, explained the Nice coach. We try to recover well, because there is intensity in our matches. We have a great challenge to achieve the most positive result possible against this Lille team which is extremely consistent. »
Franck Haise highlights the impressive series of the Mastiffs. “Twenty matches without losing, in all competitions, with 4 Champions League matches in the middle, it shows the high level of this team. We want to continue to move forward, to be as solid as possible, and then to continue to create play, to create chances, to create goals. »
