Montpellier - Chambery (32:22)

Chambery coming with huge problems

  • Published:

Montpellier won the preparation match between these two teams by 29-23, Chambery were limited to 23 goals in the first round as well and are currently struggling up front, due to lack of quality solutions

For years, this used to be the biggest derby in French handball. Today, only memories remain and  Patrice Canayer's players will decide whether or not to make this game interesting or not.

Last season, they beat Chambery here by 40-30, after what was the best half-time of the entire season. They were already up by 20-11 at halftime. Keeper Siffert, who replaced injured Omeyer then and is now their first-choice keeper, had a 15/18 efficiency at one point in late first half. You don't see something like that so often, and the rest of the game was just about getting the job done.

The vengeance came in the last round. Montpellier needed a win for the 2nd spot and a place in the Champions League, but Chambery just wouldn't budge. They did better in this fast-paced game and won by 33-30, which put allowed PSG to take second spot. During the summer, the Frenchmen sent a request for an additional place in the CL for their clubs, EHF were in the process of introducing new systems for European Cups and their plea was accepted and Montpellier got into the CL from the 3rd spot.

During preparations, Montpellier beat Chambery by 29-23 and they are going into today's game after an assured win against Istres. Canayer's boys had problems during first half and were down by 2 at certain points as Kosanović made plenty of saves on Istres's goal but there was only one team on the court in the second half. They soon got a 3-4 goal lead and then maintained the goal difference with the help of their Slovenian players. Dolenec, Gajić and Kavtičnik scored 4 each, Gaber added 3 and they are still without injured Mačkovšek.

Their speed will be crucial for today's game as Chambery cannot maintain this rhythm; they don't have a wide bench and their starters aren't completely ready. In comparison to the Super Cup in Tunisia, Montpellier have given Laluška his debut and he will reinforce their defense with Gaber, which should allow Canayer to put up a solid defensive block.

The game against Istres, in which the keepers did very little, should not be a measure of things and they will need a better performance. Considering their rivals, their motivation should be unquestionable. 

On the other hand, we have a team that has been going down for a couple of seasons, in terms of quality, investments and performances...During the summer, they lost their first-choice right-back Nyokas and first keeper Dumolin. The latter's departure proved to be a major blow in the first round as they lost by 26-23 against his new club Toulouse and Dumolin made 18 saves with 45% success rate. Chambery were without their left-back N'Guessan, Bičanić had 4/10 shot, Panić 2/5, and their two keepers Genty - Diot made only 7 saves altogether. Their left wing Rémy Feutrier (5/6) is the only one who deserves praise while Gille brothers missed all 3 shots from live action.

Chambery's attack is not the same with Nyokas and N'Guessan and we should also mention that Bičanić missed out on a major part of the preparations. It's clear they will struggle this season as well. A new problem ahead of today's away game is the injury of their first-choice keeper Genty but since they don't have an adequate replacement for him apart from young Diot (born in 1993), Cavalli will have to take the risk and leave Genty in the squad tonight.

The same might happen with N'Guessan. The information from the French media state that his situation will be decided after the last training and their physicians will have the last say. He injured his ankle during last prep game.

Right wing Cedric Paty is back for Toulouse after several months and he will share his spot with Jerko Matulić (3/5). Wings and pivots are not problematic for Chambery but thin back court rotation is.
