Grand Santi vs Matoury

GRAND SANTI, French Guiana (Interstat) — Grand Santi hosts Matoury on Saturday, May 30, in a Régional 1 matchup at Stade Grand Santi, with kickoff set for a time to be announced.

The game features two teams trending in opposite directions after a tense 2-2 draw between them on May 23. That result extended Matoury’s unbeaten run against Grand Santi in the series to three matches, following a 3-2 win in November and a 3-0 victory in August. Grand Santi has not beaten Matoury since before the 2025 season.

Matoury enters the weekend with a 5-2-3 record over its last 10 league fixtures. The club is coming off a 3-2 loss to Cosma on May 23, the same day it drew with Grand Santi. Before that, Matoury posted a lopsided 9-0 win over Remire on May 16, though that result was tempered by a 1-1 draw at Sinnamary later the same day. The club has been prolific in attack, scoring 24 goals across its past 10 matches while conceding 10.

Grand Santi carries a less consistent form line. The club is 3-4-3 over its last 10, with the May 23 draw at Matoury its most recent result. That followed a 3-2 loss at ASC Karib on May 17 and a 1-1 draw with ASC Armire on May 10. Grand Santi has scored 16 goals in its last 10 matches while allowing 14, a differential that reflects a defense that has kept only two clean sheets in that span.

The Interstat game simulator projects a 1-1 draw.

Saturday’s match is the first of three consecutive home fixtures for Grand Santi, which hosts Olymp de Cayenne on June 6 and Remire on June 13. Grand Santi then visits Agouado on June 10 and d’Or de Mana on June 17 before returning home for Sinnamary on June 20. The team closes its regular-season schedule June 27 at Cosma.

For Matoury, the May 30 contest begins a busy stretch of six matches in 18 days. The club plays its next two games at home: June 6 against an opponent listed as Matoury (likely a scheduling placeholder for a yet-to-be-determined opponent) and June 10 against Le Geldar, then faces Olymp de Cayenne later that same day. A road trip to Le Geldar on June 13 is followed by a visit to CSC Cayenne on the same date. Matoury then hosts Agouado on June 17 and Loyola on June 17 before traveling to ASC Armire on June 20 and hosting CSC Cayenne on June 20. The club finishes June 27 at Remire.

The top of the Régional 1 table remains competitive, with both teams positioning themselves for a potential playoff or title push. Grand Santi, playing on its home surface, will aim to snap a three-match winless streak in league play and reassert itself as a contender. Matoury, meanwhile, will rely on its offensive depth after the 9-0 outburst against Remire, seeking to replicate that output against a Grand Santi defense that has conceded multiple goals in four of its last five outings.

Saturday’s result could provide clarity for both clubs as they look ahead to a congested June schedule.
