It’s the duel of two women’s teams with similar records at this point in the season. They are second tied. The Landes lost to the Spanish in the first leg 81 to 52.
There are only two matches left before qualification. Each team will therefore be keen to make their difference. The Landaises team plays this Wednesday evening in full, just like the girls from Salamanca.
On the floor, the evening will be special for one of them: Laura Gil, former Basket Landes player. She returns to Mont-de-Marsan for the first time, this time with the Perfumerias Avenida jersey.
If the Landaises occupy the top of the national championship rankings, things are more complicated at the European level. The team islast in her group but she can still turn everything around. So pthere is a question of losing this Wednesday against Salamanca. The preparation has therefore been intense in recent days.
In the French championship, they have just defeated the first in the ranking, Angers, 81 to 64, during their last home meeting on Sunday November 17. A nice clear victory. They are now fifth in the ranking.
The Basket Landes players are young, with an average age of 24, and still need to strengthen themselves to withstand the shock against European clubs. “Physically, I feel them… I don’t want to be wrong, but I think they are good” notes Vincent Bop, the physical trainer of the Landes team.
And we will do everything to make them better and better.

Better in body and in mind, the Landeses will have to be to erase a heavy defeat barely a month ago against the same Salamanca team.
This decisive match can be followed live from 7:15 p.m. on .3NoA, the 100% Nouvelle-Aquitaine channel which focuses heavily on basketball. The comments are signed Lukas Nicot and Céline Dumerc, former coach of Basket Landes.
