After Dieppe and Bayonne, who is off to go in National 2?

It’s done ! This weekend actually enabled the National 3 championship to formalize its first two clubs promoted to the above floor for the 2025-2026 season. It is Bayonnais rowing and FC Dieppe, who dominated hens respectively and the head and shoulders. Now, eight tickets remain to be distributed in the race for the rise in National 2. The point four days from the end.

A question of time for Rousset

The name of the third thief should not be too long. After Bayonne and Dieppe, the FC Rousset Sainte-Victoire should also rally the fourth level. The Bouches-du-Rhône club occupies the first place in group J with eleven lengths ahead of its Dauphin Alès. And despite his heavy defeat suffered in Agde this weekend (0-5), only his second for the exercise, the southern training should quickly complete the case. Especially since it has a late match … in the event of a victory or even a draw depending on the result of the second, Rousset could formalize his first climb in N2 as of Saturday when receiving Corte, penultimate (6 p.m.). A question of time, therefore …

The other teams for whom it starts to smell good are Borgo et Silt. In group D first of all, the Corsican club has eight points ahead of the second, while twelve must still be allocated by May 17. Despite his draw against the Caen reserve on Saturday (2-2), he could take a new big step in a few days with the reception of the AG Caen, a red lantern already sentenced to relegation in regional 1 (Saturday, 6 p.m.). At the same time, Limonest will be on the move in Haute-Savoie to challenge Thonon Évian. The leader of Pool I, which won against Lyon-La Duchère during the shock of the 22nd day on Saturday (2-1), now records eight points ahead of its victim (3rd) and six on Olympique Lyonnais, its dolphin. If he perfectly negotiates his duel in Thonon, the FCLDSD could knock out the championship from the next day with the reception of OL B.

Suspense total

On the other hand, in the other groups, the suspense is total. In Pool B in particular, where several training courses campaign to access the fourth division. Currently, orders are occupied by Chauray. But the now flagship club of Deux-Sèvres, after the adventures of the Chamois Niortais, is threatened by the reserve of FC Nantesone point behind. The chestnutthird, is only two lengths behind. Without forgetting Angers Bfourth with … three points less. Mathematically, Fontenay (5e) one Vertou (6th), with six points less, can still believe it. To be monitored Panazol (7e), Challans (8e), Glazed (9th) and La Roche Esof (10th), at seven units. In short, nothing has yet been played.

Uncertainty also in group C dominated by the Guingampaise reserve. Four days from the term, the En Avant has three additional points that his runner -up, Evenand four in third place occupied by another professional reserve, that of Lorient. Renneswinner in Saint-Lô this weekend (3-1), accuses seven points on his Breton neighbor but may not have said his last word yet. The next day promises to be decisive, with the Rennes-Lorient derby. In group F, a mano mano could animate the race for the climb. Currently, honor to Chartresleader with two points more than Montlouis. The duo has seven and five additional points respectively in third place occupied by Cosne. Opponent that Chartres must still meet in the last straight line …

In Pool G, advantage at the moment at the Lusitanos. The Saint-Maur team occupies first place with two points more than the Racing CFF. The two Ile-de-France teams apparently made the hole on the competition, since the Troyes reserve is respectively relegated to ten and eight points. Again, a two -headed duel is looming to access National 2. Finally, in group H, it is a trio that is flocking. In mind, Colmar count a point ahead of the Sochaux reserve (2nd) and two on the Racing Besançon (3E). Pontarlierfourth, may start a little further. Note a direct confrontation between Colmar and Sochaux at the penultimate day.
