Football: in National 3, at Lucciana, Beaucaire must not waste any more

Nicolas Bertil et les Beaucairois ont un vrai un bon coup à jouer en Corse. MIDI LIBRE – ERIC DOLADILLE

Dans le cadre d’un match en retard de la 11e journée de N3, Beaucaire se déplace en Corse, samedi 1er février, opposé à Lucciana. Avec l’opportunité, en cas de succès, de grimper sur le podium.

At the end of November 2024, in a delayed match, Beaucaire stumbled at home (1-2) against the relegated Sud FC Porto-Vecchio, missing the opportunity to climb to 2nd place. This Saturday, Sofyan Carletta's men are updating their schedule again, again against the Corsicans, in Lucciana.

With, here too, the possibility for the Stade to settle on the 3rd step of the podium (ahead of Agde, which it beat, 2-1) in the event of success.

Respect the timing on the pitch… and off

''If we bring back a draw, we will have taken a small step towards staying up. And, if we win, we will take a bigger step'', advances, cautiously, Xavier Mouret, Carletta's assistant. During this mini-stay on the Isle of Beauty, ''we're going to have to be good at organizing. I've planned everything, we'll have to respect the tight timing''.

On the pitch, Traoré's teammates will also have to be rigorous and opportunistic, opposed to an island team that has only won one of its last five matches (2 draws, 2 defeats) and that could have a little heavy legs, chaining its third outing in seven days (1-1 against Villefranche, Wednesday at home).

Beaucaire will be without defender Benaissa and midfielder Hsissane, injured. Piston Diallo, sent off Saturday against Fos, is suspended.

Beaucaire (5th, 21 pts) plays at Lucciana (9th, 17 pts) at 12:30 p.m.
