Libourne (Exc.) – Périgueux (N3F), Sunday November 17 at 3:30 p.m. The Périgourdines are in a positive spiral, as evidenced by their clear victory at Saint-Junien in the championship (28-34). The meeting in Libourne is less unbalanced than the two divisions apart might suggest. Didier Lheureux, the coach, wishes to present a mixed team, with reserves, to maintain group homogeneity. And the Girondines, who are aiming to move up, have only lost one match… against Périgueux B.
Limoges (N3F) – Sarlat (Exc.), Saturday 16 November at 6:45 pm. Two divisions apart seem a priori prohibitive but the Limougeaudes, who come down from Nationale 2, do not have the wind in their sails while the Sarladaises are making an interesting start to the championship. The gap may not be as wide despite the absence of the goalkeeper.
Men's Regional French Cup
Champcevinel (PN) – Langon (Hon.), Saturday November 16 at 9 p.m. The Champcevinellois came close to being penalized against Biard, obtaining a miraculous draw in the last seconds (31-31). By receiving Langon, the Périgourdins will necessarily be favorites.
Montpon (Exc.) – Girondins de Bordeaux B (Hon.), Saturday November 16 at 8 p.m. President Pérot's players are still undefeated and have just brought back a good draw from Objat (32-32). The match was reversed, which can only increase their chances of winning.
Coulounieix-Chamiers (Hon.) – Isle (PN), Saturday November 16 at 8 p.m. The Périgourdins overpowered Bruges (29-27) to stay at the top of the table. The reception of Isle will be an interesting test before facing the first two in the standings in the championship.
Paillet (Exc.) – Foyen Vélinois (Hon.), Saturday November 16 at 8:45 p.m. The start of the season is complicated for the Foyens but the gaps are closing. The trip to Paillet will not be easy against an opponent playing a division above.
