PARIS (Interstat) — Creteil-Lusitanos will host Limonest on Saturday, May 9, 2026, in a National 2 match that pits two inconsistent sides against each other as the French fourth-division season winds down.

Creteil-Lusitanos enters the game having drawn 0-0 at Istres on Friday, May 1, its third match in the last five without a win. The club’s form has been erratic: a 2-0 loss to Andrezieux and a 3-0 defeat at Cannes bookended a 1-0 win over Hyeres and a 2-1 loss at St Maur Lusitanos before the Istres stalemate. Creteil has managed only two goals in its last five matches.

Limonest, meanwhile, arrives after a 3-1 loss at Grasse on Saturday, May 2, that snapped a two-match winning streak. Prior to that defeat, Limonest had beaten FC 93 Bobigny-Bagnolet-Gagny 2-1 and Toulon 2-0, and had scored four goals in a win at Frejus St-Raphael. However, the club also suffered a 5-0 thrashing at Rumilly Vallieres on April 4, highlighting defensive vulnerabilities.

In the most recent head-to-head meeting, Creteil-Lusitanos defeated Limonest 1-0 on Saturday, Jan. 17, 2026, in Limonest. That result extended Creteil’s slight edge in the season series, though both teams have shown the ability to score and concede in bunches this season.

Interstat’s game simulator projects a 1-1 draw, a result that would reflect the teams’ comparative current form. Creteil has struggled to find consistent attacking rhythm, while Limonest has been prone to defensive lapses but capable of explosive offensive outbursts.

The match carries implications for both sides as they look ahead to their next fixtures. Limonest will return home to face Nimes on Saturday, May 16, while Creteil travels to play Rumilly Vallieres the same day. A win Saturday could provide valuable momentum, while a loss might complicate any late-season ambitions.

Kickoff is scheduled for Saturday at Creteil’s home venue. Both teams will be seeking to finish the season on a positive note against a direct competitor in the National 2 table.
