National: Nîmes travels to the runner-up, Niort, to glean a result, today at 3 p.m.

Buteur contre Cholet, Mexique sera encore une des clés de la rencontre face à Niort. Midi Libre – MiKAEL ANISSET

Pour l'ouverture de la 25e journée de National, Nîmes Olympique se déplace au stade René Gaillard de Niort, ce vendredi 15 mars à un horaire inhabituel : 15 h.

Emerging victorious at the last minute from their duel with the bottom team last Friday, the Crocos will have to be more solid in their confrontation with the Niortais Chamois if they want to bring back a result from Deux-Sèvres .

With four points ahead of the red zone (but one game ahead), Frédéric Bompard's men can see it coming but the fight will be close until the end. at the end and each point taken will be important.

Initially scheduled for 7:30 p.m., this meeting was brought forward to 3 p.m. due to problems with the lighting at the René Gaillard stadium.

With more commitment and desire to create than that displayed against Cholet, Nîmes should annoy Niort, defeated this Monday by Dijon and who will therefore have some doubts before this meeting.
