Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Boulogne in 11th and Bourg-en-Bresse in 7th place.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
