The draw for the Europa League 2025-2026 group phase, which took place in Monaco, revealed the opponents of OGC Nice for the next European competition. The Nice club is thus preparing for a campaign full of promises and challenges, with the hope of offering its fans beautiful evenings in their stadium. The meeting against AS Roma, a renowned Italian club accustomed to major European events, is particularly awaited and promises to bring a unique atmosphere to the Allianz Riviera. Nice will also have to face strong teams like Braga, Fribourg and Go Ahead Eagles, while being aware of the surprise potential of the latter.

This group phase promises to be a real outdoor adventure for Nice, with trips to Porto, Istanbul and Bulgaria. The match in Porto, in a historic stadium and against a prestigious club, will be a real test for the Aiglons. Similarly, the meeting in Istanbul against Fenerbahçe promises an electric atmosphere and additional pressure. Nice will have to show strength and maturity to meet these challenges. The club is determined to overcome the frustration of the previous season, marked by the lack of victory in Europe, and to prove that it has progressed.

The new CEO of GOC Nice, Fabrice Bocquet, stressed the importance of this competition for the club, expressing the desire to redeem itself compared to last season. He also mentioned possible adjustments to the team as part of the mercato, demonstrating the club’s lucidity and ambition for this European campaign. The official calendar will be published soon, but one thing is certain: the Allianz Riviera will vibrate again in mid-September, with the hope of a more happy page than the previous one. Home matches include AS Roma, Sporting Braga, SC Fribourg and Go Ahead Eagles, while outdoor matches are between Nice and FC Porto, Fenerbahçe, Ludogorets Razgrad and Celta Vigo.
