This Saturday, the Gym (4th) travels to Guingamp (15th) to wrap up its fine season. The Aiglons will head to Brittany for this match, which will be played at 9 PM, with the ambition of completing a successful season against a traditionally tough opponent.
A victory would be doubly important because, in addition to securing 4th place, it could allow the Nice team to surpass their neighbors and rivals AS Monaco if they do not win against Montpellier at the Louis II stadium, and it would allow them to reach the podium, synonymous with participation in next season’s Champions League.
OGC Nice will therefore attempt to claim third place even though they don’t have all the cards in their hands. A dream for Hatem Ben Arfa, Valère Germain, and Claude Puel, who are rumored to be leaving and have been key figures in an outstanding year in more ways than one? A qualification for the Champions League might just make them reconsider…
The last time Nice was on the podium was during the 1975-1976 season.
The only downside is that Nice struggles away from home, with only one win in their last 11 away matches in Ligue 1 (2-0 at Montpellier on March 12th).
