Amiens SC Tickets

Amiens SC - Survivors against the odds

The 2017/18 was the first ever season in the French top flight for the 'Unicorns'. Surviving was an impressive feat, but with the club always looking safe from relegation to a Ligue 2 containing the likes of AS Nancy, there is a distinct feeling that regular top half finishes are a possibility in the near-future. As such, sales of Amiens SC tickets via StubHub are on the increase!

The team to take Amiens SC forward

As one of four teams in the 2017/18 Ligue 1's 'safe zone' to score less than forty goals, there was an emphasis on going all-out to secure backup and extra options in the final third. Going into his second Ligue 1 season with Amiens on the back of thirteen goals the previous term, Senegalese striker Moussa Konaté was the point-man in attack for his team. However, providing backup (and possible competition) is Colombian forward Juan Otero. The loss of midfield 'rock' Tanguy Ndombélé to Olympique Lyonnais was seen as a potential setback, but with Otero looking like a good candidate to play behind Konaté in a tactical shift, it seems as though attack may be the best form of defence at Amiens. While this may result in a few heart-stopping moments in defence, the entertainment factor will surely be multiplied for those looking to buy Amiens SC tickets on StubHub!

A second Ligue 1 season for the 'Unicorns'

Many teams in the past have flitted in and out of the French top flight, but the story of Amiens SC is shaping up to be very different. It is a testament to the Unicorns' tenacity that the team survived after losing six of its opening eight league games, including the first three in a row, in 2017/18. Other teams would have folded, but the club has worked far too hard to give up. The Unicorns' quest to become established in the top flight goes all the way back to 1901, beginning life as a schoolboy side that grew over the course of three decades to eventually become professional. The outbreak of war soon after stunted the club's development as a professional one, and between 1952 and 1993, they reverted to amateur status. From 2001 to 2009, the club played in the second tier, before once again experiencing the sting of relegation from Ligue 1. Amiens then went up twice in successive seasons between 2015 and 2017. The club has never looked back, and there has never been a better time to go and buy Amiens SC tickets via StubHub than now!
