Two games before the end of regular season, an important game for both teams that are fighting for the second position, the position that leads directly into the play-off semi-final. Even though a draw also suits the home team and defending champions, who had a three point advantage over Issy before this game, there are several reasons why we should believe they will go into today's game with full strength. Before the game against Larvik in the Champions League three days ago, coach Frederic Bougeant said that that game will serve them as a preparation for much more important game against Issy that awaits them on Wednesday, and the same happened on the field. His team lost (28-31) that last Champions League games this season, they had no motivation but they kept high intensity and demonstrated great offensive performance. They will be motivated today, they want revenge for the defeat from the first part of the season, and they are complete which cannot be said about the team from Paris who are still euphoric after the spectacular win over Erd on Saturday in quarter-final return fixture. Issy secured a spot in the semi-final with a counterattack goal ten seconds before the end. Stine Oftedal scored that goal and she will miss today's game due to injury she suffered after the game. Today's game will be the first time Issy will play without their best player this season. If we add that Issy will also be without their best scorer, left-back Jovanovic and pivot Fehri, they will have a hard time to resist the attacks from the French champions. We should also mention that last season Fleury were convincing in both games they played at home in Orleans (30-24, 31-24). Tonight's game will probably end the same way.
