Beaten by Toulon in the last matchday, the women of OGC Nice Handball host Issy Paris tonight to regain confidence before entering the final stretch of the regular season.
The Nice team, ranked 6th, will have a tough challenge against a Île-de-France team that is 3rd in the LFH and full of confidence after their comprehensive victory (27-19) against Nîmes last week.
A win is essential for OGC Nice, which can rely on the return to form of their international goalkeeper, Cléopatre Darleux, after her long absence at the beginning of the season.
In the event of a defeat, the players under Sébastien Gardilllou would see Nantes and Toulon dangerously closing in on their 6th place, the last spot still qualifying for the playoffs.
With only 5 matches left in the regular season, every point gained will be worth its weight in gold.
And it starts tonight at 8:30 PM at the Charles Ehrmann Sports Park.
