The Eagles of Nice (7th) will host the Bisons of Neuilly (8th) this Saturday, January 11th, at 7:15 PM at the Jean Bouin ice rink, as part of the 19th day of the French Division 1 Championship.
The Eagles narrowly missed out on the overtime point last Saturday in Mulhouse. With this defeat, Nice finds themselves in 7th place in the championship.
The reception of Neuilly this Saturday is therefore important, since the Bisons are 8th with a game in hand.
In the first leg match, the Eagles had an off game and lost with a score of 7-6. The Azurรฉens will therefore need to take their revenge.
Karri Koivu and Jozef Slaninak will be unavailable for the match. Aurรฉlien Macon is gradually resuming training.
