2 eek FC Nantes AS SaintEtienne PREVIE : FC NANTES AS SAINTETIENNE FC Nantes AS SaintEtienne Feature Preview FC Nantes and AS SaintEtienne will hope to get off to a winning start and erase memories of a demoralising end to the first half of the season when they meet on Sunday. odged in lower midtable at the halfway stage, Nantes' season could go either way in the new year with them currently five points off the relegation zone and eight points adrift of second place. es Canaris have tumbled down the table after a solid start to the season, and head into the second half of the campaign seeking a first win in eight league outings. hile Michel Der Zakarian's team have continued to struggle for goals only bottom side ESTAC Troyes have found the net fewer times this season they have remained formidably difficult to beat. Though they have not won since their rearranged eek fixture with OGC Nice in early November, they lurched towards the Christmas break with five successive draws, including a goalless encounter with Breton rivals FC orient in eek. They did move into the Round of of the Coupe de France in their first outing of, however, following a win over amateur side Blanc Mesnil Sport, which was their first victory in eight competitive outings. "e'll have to highlight the fact we qualified, because we could have played better," said midfielder Adrien Thomasson, who got one of the goals in the cup tie. "e knew that it would be a tricky game, but we were very determined and had been looking forward to the match. e had to score early and then get a second to give ourselves some breathing space. I hope we'll score as many goals in the league." Coach Michel Der Zakarian added: "e did what had to be done. It's always difficult to get going again after the festive period, but we put in a professional display. e perhaps could have put more emphasis on playing the ball in behind them, but it wasn't easy to play with precision. They didn't have anything, no chances apart from one centre that went across the face of goal. Overall, we had control of things. It's the fundamental thing in football to respect your opponents." Der Zakarian's men will no doubt adopt the same attitude for their eek opponents. SaintEtienne have a good recent record in Nantes, where they have only lost once in their last six visits, and they won when the pair met earlier this season. However, Christophe Galtier's side also lost their mojo during the runin to the winter break, losing four of their last seven league outings. Though they are just three points behind secondplaced AS Monaco, they have just four points in hand over tenthplaced Olympique de Marseille with the field behind runaway leaders Paris SaintGermain bunched up. They did escape the ignominy of a Coupe de France exit at the hands of amateur opponents, though only due to the excellence of the hands of their goalkeeper Stéphane Ruffier, who halted a number of penalties as es Verts overcame US Raon l'etape. "e knew that that scenario could occur and that we could get knocked out, but I think we deserved to go through. e should have put away the many opportunities that we had. Their goalkeeper was very effective. e had seven or eight clearcut chances and scored just the one and were never able to put ourselves out of sight," admitted Galtier. // igue de Football Professionnel / igue.com

3 eek FC Nantes AS SaintEtienne "I congratulated those in the opposition dugout for taking us that far. hen it's like that, it's a lottery. e lacked the rub of the green in our penalties, but fortunately, Stéphane won it for us. hen the draw took place, there is a gulf between a team from the fifth tier and a team playing in Europe. People think that is enough, but it's not the case." FC Nantes AS SaintEtienne HISTORY: FC Nantes have won of the igue meetings between the pair in Nantes.
