Beaten in Angers (2-6) on the last match day, the Eagles have relinquished the 8th place to Mulhouse.
This evening, they face the bottom-ranked team, Strasbourg. Largely trailing in the league (16 points behind the 11th place, Chamonix), the Black Star is currently on a series of 5 consecutive defeats and has won only 3 of its 39 matches this season.
At the same time, Nice’s two direct rivals, Mulhouse (8th) and Epinal (10th), are hosting Rouen (1st) and Grenoble (2nd) respectively.
The kickoff for Nice-Strasbourg will be at 8 PM at Jean Bouin.
