Evian or Reims: 18th place, synonymous with Ligue 2, seems destined to one of the

with Gregory Fortune

77th season of the France football championship first division , whose first edition took place in 1932-1933, coming to an end. There are only two days to decide between the 20 clubs of the elite, establish a new hierarchy, distribute the title, European places and know the name of the third relegated to the lower floor.



Downhill L2: a priori or Reims Evian …

For now, it is a certainty, Lens and Metz go down again, only a year after their recovery . The last three promoted Caen alone should stay in Ligue 1. Last year, Sochaux, Valenciennes and Ajaccio were relegated. In 2015, two games remaining, 18th place is occupied by Evian. The defeat of Saturday, May 9 at home against Reims (2-3) did very poorly in Savoyard club, mounted in 2011 ETG four points behind the Champagne Club first non-relegation zone with 41 points.

On the 37th day Evian receive Saint-Étienne (5th), the fight for the 3rd place with Monaco and Marseille (see below), before traveling to Caen (13th with 12 points, as Lorient, Nice and Toulouse – four clubs in principle well placed to save). For its part, Reims Rennes host (9th) before going to the Parc des Princes very likely challenge the champion of France.



Paris virtually assured the coronation …

The 36th Day has indeed raised the suspense in the title race between PSG and Lyon. Less than 24 hours after the first show of force against Guingamp (6-0), the second sank in Caen (3-0). While there are only six points to the gap is now … six points, with a difference of +7 for the Parisians.

In other words, PSG will be officially crowned if he does not lose to Montpellier Saturday, May 16, or the following week against Reims home . And even if he were to lose his last two matches and that OL was required twice (against Bordeaux and Rennes), it could still be champion goal difference. A scenario that no one imagines, even in Lyon.



… Lyon the group stage of the Champions League

Authors of a remarkable season with a majority of young home-grown players, the club Jean-Michel Aulas is already satisfy to regain the Champions League next season, after three years of absence this level. Hubert Fournier’s men are in a similar situation in relation to Monaco, 3rd, PSG against him six points difference and a difference of more advantageous goals (+38 Lyon, 22 to Monaco).

There are however a little more suspense for 3rd place , qualifying for the third preliminary round of the Champions League (before a dangerous roadblock): Marseille (4th) and Saint-Etienne (5th) can still dispossessed Monaco , which has two points ahead of OM and the Greens after his defeat at the Velodrome (2-1). ASM, which receives Metz (19th) before heading to Lorient (14th), however, has its destiny. Marseille will go to Lille (8th) and will receive Bastia (10th). Saint-Etienne is going to Evian (18th) and hosts Guingamp (11)

Match Bordeaux -. 6th place Montpellier

If OM and the Greens fail to exceed Monaco, they will play the Europa League a priori . Both clubs have four points above Bordeaux, currently a 6th place which will also provide a European ticket if PSG beats Auxerre in the final of the Coupe de France on May 30 Les Girondins have three feed units in Montpellier and Lille six.

A Bordeaux-Montpellier is also scheduled on the last day , after the two clubs have challenged the leader and the runner. Rolland Courbis, the coach Herault, has consistently affirmed that playing in Europe next season would be a “catastrophe”. But should we believe? He will MHSC tried to scuttle? Response at the latest, Saturday, May 23 at the stroke of 10:50 p.m.
