2 eek OGC Nice SC Bastia PREVIE : OGC NICE SC BASTIA OGC Nice SC Bastia Feature Preview OGC Nice will hope to continue their surprise push for a igue podium finish when they entertain SC Bastia in what promises to be a feisty eek curtainraiser on Friday. Claude Puel steered Nice to fourth in his first season in charge, but a dalliance with relegation followed by last season's midtable finish hardly suggested the southcoast outfit would challenge for a UEFA Champions eague qualifying place this time round, particularly this late in the season. Yet, Puel's men find themselves handily placed in third coming into the final straight of the campaign. However, with Stade Rennais FC only three points back in eighth and Nice having recorded just a single win in their last five outings, they will hope to lay down a marker for their rivals for a topthree finish as they kick off the weekend's action. The return from a lengthy injuryenforced layoff of forward Alassane Pléa, who sustained a meniscus problem shortly after the defeat of SC Bastia in September and did not return until midfebruary, is a major boost, particularly given the hamstring injury to Hatem ben Arfa that has sidelined the club's top scorer since the eek derby with AS Monaco and will do so again on Friday. "His return will do us good, and me too," said Valére Germain of Pléa, who will likely be paired with the former Olympique yonnais man up front against the Corsican visitors. "He's coming back for the runin, and I hope that for him and for us that he'll have a great end to the season. He brings his movement, and attracts defenders to him a bit more than I do. It's an extra attacking option, and the more of us there are, the more chaos it creates for opponents." Pléa's ability to create and take chances will be useful against a Bastia side that boasts the sixthbest defensive record in the division. The Corsican club, who recently replaced Ghislain Printant with François Ciccolini as coach, are only six points clear of the bottom three, but only seven adrift of their eek opponents, despite being in th place. Their season could go either way, and to ensure a happy ending they will have to improve their woeful away form. No igue team has picked up fewer points on their travels this season than Bastia, while they have won just once 'on the road' all term. That was in their last game, though, as they defeated Stade de Reims in eek, which was followed by the postponement of their eek encounter with FC Nantes. Added to that, a run of backtoback wins and three victories in their last four league outings suggests the runin could be enjoyable for their passionate supporters, and those fans will have an extrawide smile on their faces if their team can overcome Nice with whom they have a heated rivalry. "e know the importance of the game for our fans," admitted defender Mathieu Peybernes, who was in the side that won in Reims courtesy of a Floyd Ayité goal. "It'll be an opportunity to test ourselves against a good team. e really want to make up for the defeat we suffered in the home game against them. e want to bring something back with us. e'll have to transfer the values we showed at Reims to Nice. e'll have to let ourselves go with the same determination." // igue de Football Professionnel / igue.com
