RUMILLY, France (Interstat) — Rumilly Vallieres hosts Creteil-Lusitanos on Saturday, May 16, in a National 2 matchup with postseason implications for both clubs.

Prior to that, the visitors drew 0-0 with Istres on May 1 after consecutive losses to Andrezieux (2-0 on April 24) and Cannes (3-0 on April 17). Creteil’s only other win in its last seven matches came April 10 against Hyeres (1-0).
