The Aiglons will start their Ligue 1 Conforama season at the Geoffroy-Guichard, on the weekend of 5-6 August, before welcoming Troyes the week after.

The fixture list is very similar to last season with the visits of Monaco and Marseille one after the other in September at the Allianz Riviera, and of Paris in the second half of the season (17 March).

And just as in 2016-17, Lucien Favre’s side will finish away from home, at the Parc OL, fifteen days after their trip to Vélodrome. Between the two away games, the final home game in front of the Nice fans against Caen on 12 May.

The succession of games at home from the get-go (with two home games in a row) means that the Gym could play up to eight games at the Allianz Riviera in August and September, if the team is successful in the 3^rd qualifying round of Ligue des Champions and qualifies for the group stages.

This year, none of the three midweek games will be in Nice. But amongst them, there will be the derby at the Louis II (Wednesday 17 January).

L.O.
