The 17th day of the National takes place over three days this weekend with a fight still intense at both ends of the rankings. Discover the issues and program.
USBCO and US Orléans on the lookout
The scheduling of this 17th act could allow the pursuers of the Nancy leader to put a little pressure on. Boulogne, which will host Dijon for this day's clash, and Orléans, which will receive the red lantern Châteauroux, could indeed take control of the division in the event of a victory this Friday evening.
Sochaux and Concarneau must take points
The Lionceaux and the Thoniers are obviously still in the game in the race for accession to Ligue 2. But a small gap is nevertheless widened with the podium (respectively -5 and -6) for two teams in slow motion during of the last few days with 3 draws in a row for Mokeddem's team and a record of 4 defeats for 1 victory for Rossi's team over these last five outings.
Complicated trips await Sochaliens and Concarnois this Saturday, with possible additional pressure depending on the results of Boulogne and Orléans, which could make this 17th day a big turning point of the season.
Return to success for Nîmes, Paris or Valenciennes?
While Versailles is exempt and Villefranche has a complicated trip to a QRM in great shape, Paris 13 Atletico, Nîmes and Valenciennes can do well in the race to maintain this weekend but with posters difficult to negotiate their margin of maneuver will not be important.
