The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Cotonsport are in the 4th position while the guests worry at 8th.
It's no vacation for neither Cotonsport nor Colombe as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Colombe have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
