Friday evening, Grenoble receives Châteauroux for a meeting of the 26th day of Ligue 1. Grenoble can always dream of play-offs while Châteauroux wants to accentuate its lead in the red zone.
For its 2nd consecutive season in Ligue 2, Grenoble can still dream of a hypothetical place in play-offs since it occupies 9th place in the ranking and is 9 points behind 5th place. After having a good success at Troyes (1-2), the Isérois won two draws against Le Havre (1-1) and Lens (0-0). Finally, last week, they won ahead of Niort (3-1).
A few lengths behind in the standings, in 16th place, we find Châteauroux who has garnered 28 points since the start of the season, 6 more than the first relegation, Niort. After winning at Châteauroux (0-1), the Berrichonne had been beaten twice by Chambly (0-3) and Troyes (2-0). But last week, they were very enthusiastic during their victory against Lens before getting scared in the 2nd period (3-2).
For Grenoble, the long-term injured Demba and the little used Abdallah will not be available. Against Niort, Djitte scored her 7th goal of the season last week.
Substitute Boukari and titular defender Fofana are still on the field. However, the holders Leroy, Chouaref, Goncalves and Sangante will return from suspension.
