Poitiers-Toulouse in figures | Le7.info
The PB86 receives on Saturday a team from Toulouse which still aspires to be part of the Top 5 of Pool A and which Poitiers had limited to 51 points in the first leg.
15. Like the difference between the two teams in the first leg, on October 29. After three consecutive victories, including a restrained one against Rueil (99-66), the TBC had fallen in arms against a Poitevin team in steamroller mode (51-66). The second best offensive armada in the division at the time -81pts on average- then marked time with six wins and five losses.
8. While the PB86 must win a long trip to Tarbes-Lourdes on Tuesday, the TBC will have strengthened by eight days between its victory in Rueil (55-61) and its trip to Poitiers. The match against Bordeaux scheduled for Tuesday has been postponed due to Covid cases in the Bordeaux workforce.
13. Like the number of 3-point shots taken by Adrien Thimon on December 10 against Rennes. The Toulouse trigger converted five of his thirteen attempts but finished the match with a full stats sheet: 33pts, 6rbds, 3pds for 31 evaluation.
42. Age of TBC captain Fayçal Sahraoui, born July 27, 1979 in Autun. He defended the colors of his city of Saône-et-Loire from the N3 to the N1, before joining Salins-les-Bains, Calais, Boulogne-sur-Mer, Carquefou, Nantes, La Rochelle and Toulouse for three seasons. The Toulouse leader is still worth 9.4pts and 5.3pds. Attention danger for the PB.
49. Or the number of matches played by Ron Anderson Jr under the colors of PB86, straddling the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 seasons. The US interior had concluded its second year on solid stats (9.8pts, 6.9rbds)… and an injury which had deprived it of the end of the season, in particular the quarter-final of the play-offs against Orleans.
2. After Tarbes-Lourdes, this Tuesday (see le7.info), the number of games away from PB86 by the end of the return phase. And the 2nd in pool A would be well advised to win in Rueil (February 8) and/or in Vitré, two teams which beat him in Saint-Eloi and can still claim to join the Top 5 synonymous with qualification for the high hen. And as the results are preserved… Poitiers is tied with Angers (1v-1d) but ahead of Lorient (2v) or Cergy-Pontoise (2v) in this mini-championship.
