The Nations League and the French team’s matches offer this advantage, they allow Ligue 2 players to breathe a little, recognizes the FC Annecy coach. “This allows you to treat injuries (…) to regenerate, confides Laurent Guyot. And it’s also a way of seeing those who play a little less during a friendly match.” Yes because even if the championship is on break, there is no question of taking it easy. In addition to training, the Annecy staff has scheduled, this Friday, a friendly match against FC Lausanne Sport (10th in D1 Switzerland) club where Kevin Mouanga, former central defender of the Reds, plays. The meeting is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. at the Camille Fournier stadium.
FC Annecy in the Top 5
This international break is also an opportunity to take stock of the successful departure of FC Annecy. For his third consecutive season in Ligue 2, he achieved his best start to the season and is in 5th place in the ranking. “We’re not crazy so we appreciate (…) it’s also the result of the work done for several weeks”explains Laurent Guyot. But there’s no question of catching fire either. “Humility, humility, humility… it’s insufficient to achieve our maintenance objective so let’s continue to keep our points counter ticking.”
50% wins
Question points precisely, FC Annecy is still way ahead of the pace of his past seasons. After eight days, the famous counter shows 15, i.e. 5 units more compared to last season and +6 over that of 2022-2023. The Annecy residents are moving forward… and they are moving quickly. If last year they had to wait until the 15th day to total four victories, they reached this mark on the 8th day. That is to say a percentage of 50% of matches won for a single defeat and three draws.
14 goals scored
With 14 goals scored, FC Annecy can also boast of having the 3rd best attack in Ligue 2 with nine different scorers. The only downside is the absence of their leading striker Kapit Djoko from this scorers table. An anomaly which will perhaps be erased the next day. On October 19, FC Annecy will travel to Lorient (2nd) with the desire to keep the pace.
