They will face each other on May 2 and 5 in the two-way format, the melee only in the quarter-finals. The Northerners, reigning vice-champions and Euroleague finalist on April 14, confirmed their first leg victory (82-73) at home on Monday (100-91).
The Héraultaises, victorious by 15 points in the first leg in Beaujolais, came close to a big disappointment, beaten by 11 units (75-64) after missing out on their second period (lost 50 to 35). Villeneuve-d’Ascq, first in the regular season, will have home field advantage, like Basket Landes in the other poster.
