The holidays did some good! The Eagles had a bad end to the year 2012 (5 losses in 7 games) despite the good play offered by Stan Sutor’s men. The team from Nice was able to take a vacation to start the new year 2013 on a good footing!
This match is very important for the race to the playoffs. The Corsairs were the first to bring down the Eagles this season
(match lost 3-2). The team from the Riviera will want to take their revenge in front of the Jean Bouin audience, this Saturday, January 5th.
