Boulogne – Annecy

Boulogne host Annecy in what promises to be a tightly contested clash, with the home side languishing in 12th place on nine points after a season of stalemates – six draws and just one win from nine games, leaving them level on goals scored and conceded at six apiece. Annecy sit a little higher in eighth, having amassed 13 points from four victories, a draw and four defeats, their attack and defence both balanced at 11 goals each. The two teams have already exchanged a mixture of results this campaign, and the narrow three‑point gap suggests a win for either side could be pivotal in the battle for survival. Both squads will be eager to improve their goal difference, making the upcoming encounter a potentially decisive moment in the lower half of the table.
