ANDREZIEUX, France (Interstat) — Andrezieux hosts Nimes on Saturday in a National 2 clash at Stade Roger-Baudras, with both sides looking to solidify their positions in the French fourth division. Kickoff is set for 6 p.m. local time.

Andrezieux (10-5-6, 35 points) enters on a two-match winning streak after a 2-0 victory at Creteil-Lusitanos on April 24. That result followed a 3-0 home win over Toulon on April 3. The home side, however, has been inconsistent: they lost 3-0 at FC 93 Bobigny-Bagnolet-Gagny on April 11 and fell 2-1 to Grasse on April 17. Overall, Andrezieux has won five of its last eight league matches.

Nimes (12-4-5, 40 points) comes in off a 3-0 home victory over Cannes on April 25, extending a strong run. The visitors have won eight of their last 10 league games, with their only loss in that stretch a 2-1 defeat at St Maur Lusitanos on April 11. Nimes has been particularly stingy defensively, posting seven clean sheets in those 10 matches.

The teams met most recently on Jan. 10, when Andrezieux and Nimes played to a 1-1 draw in Nimes. That result extended a trend of tight contests; each side has one win and three draws in their last five meetings across all competitions.

Interstat’s game simulator projects a 1-1 draw, reflecting the balanced form of both clubs. Nimes boasts a deeper roster and better road form (5-2-3 away), while Andrezieux is 6-2-1 at home.

Both teams have key games ahead. Nimes hosts Istres on May 9, then travels to Limonest on May 16. Andrezieux visits Grand Ouest Association Lyonnaise FC on May 9, then hosts Rousset-Ste Victoire on May 16.

Saturday’s match is the second-to-last home game for Andrezieux, who sit seventh in the 14-team group. Nimes, third, is chasing promotion to National. A win could lift the visitors into second place depending on other results.
