OGC Nice travels once again to Lyon to conclude their championship. But unlike last year, both teams have much to gain… and to lose.
On Saturday, the Gym will conclude their season in Lyon, in an epilogue surrounded by very high stakes (kick-off at 9 p.m.). Against the Gones, who will be seeking to secure their qualification for the Champions League, the Niçois will attempt to validate their ticket for the Europa League.
