AS Saint-Etienne : the Greens start with a spectacular advantage in Nîmes | ASSE News

Zapping Goal! Football club ASSE: the debrief of the match against AS Monaco

ASSE will have a hard time winning in Nîmes this afternoon. The Crocs are pumped up since their prestigious victory in Lille before the international break (2-1). Among their weapons, the Greens can oppose an appetite for combat.

As Opta points out, ASSE is in the team that has played (3,538) and won (1,798) the most duels in the five big leagues this season! The statistic may seem surprising, but it illustrates that the Greens are capable of going to duels when needed.

Nîmes cannot win against ASSE in D1

Another advantage of ASSE in the Gard: it has been 45 years and 6 months since the Crocos have eaten the Greens in the first division. Led by Daniel Sanlaville, the proteges of Kader Firoud had imposed themselves on Jean-Bouin (goals from René Girard and Serge Dellamore) on October 4, 1975 for the last time (2-0). Claude Puel knows what will have to be done to extend this historic series.
