First derby of the season between Objat and Capo Limoges Handball this Saturday, at 8:30 p.m., at the Objatois college gymnasium. The Corréziens, undefeated, will challenge a Limoges team that has dropped several points on the road.
It’s already derby time for the HBCOC. After two championship days this season, the Objatois are preparing to face their neighbors from Capo Limoges. And the dynamics are noticeably different. On the one hand, the Limoges club missed the opening match on the Rezé court with a big defeat (41-29). Last week’s success by a small goal against Chateauneuf-en-Thymerais doesn’t seem to have reassured anyone, even if it allows us to approach this clash a little more calmly.

On the other hand, Objat seems to have more certainties. Despite the many changes during the off-season, the start of the 2024-2025 season seems solid. For the moment, the balance sheet is positive with a home win and a draw away.
“We have to keep up our momentum,” said Pierre-Charles Caminade. “The guys are getting involved, and everyone is eager to play this match.”

Another difference, Objat wins the duel of numbers. With 68 goals scored and 66 conceded, the Corréziens do better than the Limoges who have a negative goal difference of -11.
However, for the red and black staff, there is no question of talking about favorites. “They have lost a major element of their team and I think they are in a running-in phase,” comments the HBCOC coach. We must not take into account the first match of the season, it is certainly not their real level. It is a derby, and in a derby, there is never a favorite.”
The Objat group:
Anjos, Barrier, Belina, Collet, Courtes, Delage, Denos, Dinard, Dubois, Joudoux, Lafon, Laval, Lefebvre, Mathieu, Martinez, Nocaudie, Papillon, Pitet, Robin
