Football (Regional 1). Montauban wants to go on vacation while remaining undefeated at home

MFC/TG-AF Biars Bretenoux, Saturday, at 6 p.m., in Montauban (Jean-Verbeke complex). Referees: Mr. Gauthier Lapalu, assisted by MM. Damien Coudert, and Alexandre Cournot.
If the Méfécistes were eliminated early this season in the Coupe de France, it is this same event which forces them to play just before the holidays, since the Lotois went further. The Cup being over, the two teams meet again this evening in very different positions. And it is the Montalbanais who approach this meeting in the position of favorite, installed in 8th place in the ranking, with the possibility of positioning themselves well in the event of victory (let us also point out that Tarbes, 3rd, is making up for one of its two games behind this weekend, and that L'Union/Saint Jean, 6th – which faces Monaco in the Coupe de France, this Sunday, at the Toulouse Stadium – will be two games behind). their exploit two weeks ago, against the undefeated leader Toulouse Rodéo (the Toulouse residents who even lost their place after their defeat last weekend, against FC deux rives 82), the teammates of Loïc Laincer could achieve a big accounting blow in Toulouse metropolis, but the 1-0 defeat put a small stop to their ambitions. Let's bet that everything could start again this evening in the event of a victory against the Lotois who present themselves at Ramier in a hardly enviable position, and a penultimate place in the standings (6 points; 1 victory, 3 draws, and 5 defeats), only one small point ahead of Fonsorbes. Biarnais who remain on a negative spiral, with four defeats by a goal difference in the last five matches. Suffice to say that the visitors arrive in Montauban with the ambition of “scratch all possible points”. But facing the Tarn-et-Garonnais who intend to maintain their invincibility at home, the challenge seems daunting.
