No time to enjoy. On the road the day after Christmas on the lawn of Nîmes, the En Avant brought back three points in their suitcases. Barely time to savor this victory, the first in the league since September 17, that the Guingampais put on their crampons on Friday and the reception of Quevilly-Rouen (9 p.m.). The opportunity for the “reds and blacks” to find their audience and turn the page on the year 2022.
Merghem was waiting like the Messiah
You only miss one being and… so what about when there are several of them? Promoted to number 10 after the departure of Youssouf M’Changama, Mehdi Merghem had been entrusted with important responsibilities for this 2022/2023 season. Bothered by injuries since the start of the season, the attacking midfielder has only played four games, for two small starts, since the end of July.
Announced as back during this World Cup truce, and established before the start of the meeting, the left-hander did not finally come into play against Nîmes. “He felt a little pain in his knee during the warm-up, confided Stéphane Dumont in a press conference after the match. Given the state of the lawn, we preferred not to take any risks. A situation to watch.
Quevilly will try to spoil the party
Winner of Amiens before the truce, QRM returned the cover on Monday evening by winning (2-0) against one of the surprise teams at the start of the season: Grenoble. If the dynamics of the teams are now reset, that of Quevilly outside, who has to his credit a victory at the neighboring Stade Malherbe de Caen, could cause spoilsport for the Guingampais.
Especially since the players of Stéphane Dumont, so successful outside (3rd best team), must remake Roudourou a fortress. 16th team at home, the EAG have won only 2 of the 8 games they have played this season.
