This Sunday, May 4, the Portuguese will receive Compiègne for a crucial match with a view to maintaining regional 1. The men of Benoît Sturbois remain on three frustrating games which have dangerously brought them closer to the red zone.
It is not an easy match that awaits FC Portothis Sunday, with the reception of Compiègne, positioned in third place in the ranking, and which remains on three victories in five games. The Amiens team must go back on a good basis After three frustrating results but not regrettable: “Inevitably, saying that we have regrets about these matches would be easy, but we prefer to turn to the future and what awaits us on Sunday” concedes Benoît Sturbois, the team’s coach. It is a solid and coherent training that moves to the Samarian land on the occasion of this 21st day. For their part, the Portuguese have brought together all the ingredients to best prepare the meetingas Benoit Sturbois explains: “We have set up a game plan throughout the week, we will have to reproduce the mistakes of the last games. »» A good result will not be easy in the face of a team that is no longer used to losing at the end of the season and which now aims for first place.
A match that should however be prepared with a diet workforce since last weekend Since another player was added to a list of plans already well provided. “We have lost Diaby again since the last game […] It is certain that it does a lot. Fortunately we had planned at the start of the season to have an extended workforce, but it is certain that the absent accumulates “ Blessly notes the Picard technician. For the time being, it will be necessary to adapt for the last games of the season. A 9th place to which the Portuguese would like to remain hung as long as possible since it is synonymous with insured maintenance. “At the end of the season, there are always a lot of calculations. For the moment, we do not officially know how many places will compose the red zone. It will depend on the results of the National 3 group, but 9th place will put us whatever gets safe, we must at least stay there ” confirms the technician of the Amiens club. With only two points ahead of the red zone, the maneuvering is low and the Portuguese would be well inspired to strengthen it this weekend.
