Having won the first leg in Moldova, the Eagles host Sheriff players this Thursday with the ambition of reaching the Conference League quarterfinals.
More than 20,000 will be supporting the Gym at Allianz Riviera tonight at 9 PM. As the sole French representative in the European Cup, the entire country will be behind the Aiglons against the Moldovans.
Favorites for this return match (first leg won 0-1), the Niçois cannot resign themselves to just defending their advantage but must absolutely score to dash the Sheriff’s hopes completely. For this, Didier Digard will be able to count on Terem Moffi, who had an impressive performance in Nantes (1 goal and 1 assist). However, the Gym will be without their captain Dante, who is suspended due to an accumulation of yellow cards.
OGC Nice: Schmeichel – Lotomba, Ndayishimiye, Todibo, Viti, Bard – Ramsey or Rosario, Boudaoui, Thuram – Laborde, Moffi,
Sheriff Tiraspol: Koval – Garananga, Kiki, Radeljic (cap) – Zohouri, M. Diop, Kyabou, Covali – Badolo – Tapsoba, Atiemwen.
