Before hosting the championship leaders this Friday, the team from Nice went on to win at Chaumont with a score of 3-1. They have reached fourth place in Ligue A but are only two points away from sixth. NVB must not slack off at the end of the season if they want to secure a good draw in the play-offs.
The match of this 19th day between Chaumont and Nice turned in favor of the Azur team, who perfectly mastered their game. Led by the trio of Robin Overbeek (19 points), Jan Galabov (15 points), and Adam Bartos (15 points), the yellow and blue team made the CVB buckle.
Until the last day of the championship, long-distance duels will take place between the two contenders for the podium (with Rennes).
Their seventh consecutive victory allows them to prepare for the face-off this Friday night against the undisputed leader, Tours. Nice can achieve this by unsettling the opposing offense. In this type of confrontation, everything will depend on solid defense. The small details will matter, and they shouldn’t rest on their laurels.
The team from Nice is unbeaten in 2019, which is an exceptional performance. Their last defeat dates back to December 22 against… Tours! Will the streak end this Friday? Find out at Giamarchi Hall at 8 PM.
