Yes, we still play handball, at least professionally.
But we must recognize that it is difficult to navigate with all the dates postponed since the start of the Starligue championship.
This Wednesday, the counters will be updated a bit with two closed-door matches counting for the 6th day: Nîmes - Istres (6 p.m.), and Tremblay - PSG (7 p.m.).
The Ile-de-France derby, which was to be played on October 25 before being postponed for the case of Covid-19, is the most unbalanced on paper.
Shock of extremes.
Eleven points separate the Parisian leader from his neighbor Seine-Saint-Denis in the ranking.
Even if Tremblay only played four games (3 losses, 1 draw) against six to his Parisian rival, the difference between the two teams is logical.
It should even be even more blatant between a PSG who crushes everything on his passage in the league (6 successes), and a suburban rival who has so far only met clubs from the second half of the table.
Tremblay lacking benchmarks.
Of course, the Tremblaysiens schedule is less busy than that of PSG, engaged in the Champions League.
But Joël Da Silva's players did not expect such a long period without playing after three games postponed.
“After five weeks, we are necessarily happy to find the field, even if it is without spectators, says the coach.
Sportingly, we are very lucid.
It will be very complicated.
"
Paris travels well.
One wonders how the Parisian leader could fall this Wednesday evening on the lands of his rival and neighbor.
If he has difficulties on the European level, the seven-time champion of France crushes the national competition with a fiery attack (38 goals scored on average).
Tremblay's last home victory in this derby dates back to December 16… 2011.
