NICE: TREAT YOURSELF TO A SUSPENSEFUL END TO THE SEASON
Currently sitting at 9th place in Ligue 1 and trailing 5th place by 10 points, OGC Nice’s chances of qualifying for one of the three European Cups next year seem uncertain. Winning the Europa League Conference is imperative for the team to avoid missing out on European matches next season.
But before they can dream of making it to the final in Prague on May 31st, the Aiglons must first secure their spot in the semi-finals by defeating FC Basel. In the first leg in Switzerland, they were held to a frustrating 2-2 draw, and now Didier Digard’s men must win to avoid a penalty shootout or worse, elimination. Unfortunately, Youcef Atal and Sofiane Diop are still injured and will be unavailable, but Nicolas Pépé will be returning to the Riviera group for the match
BASEL: A TEAM WITHOUT COMPLEXES
Nice vs Basel match FC Basel, once a regular in major European competitions, is currently going through a rough patch and is placed 6th in the Swiss Super League – a championship they haven’t won since 2017. Despite this, they remain a formidable team and should not be underestimated.
Under the guidance of Heiko Vogel, Basel has some outstanding players, including two who previously played for OGC Nice. Andy Pelmard and Dan Ndoye have become key players in the Swiss team, showcasing their potential. Ndoye’s skills could prove to be a challenge for his former team, who failed to fully utilize his abilities. The attacking duo of Amdouni and Zeqiri will also pose a threat to the Nice defense.
