'We have Oparanozie at Dijon' - Chandioux boasts ahead of Soyaux showdown

Dijon head coach Yannick Chandioux has declared his side ready for the 2020-21 season as the French women's top-flight gets underway on Saturday.

The club finished ninth as a result of the coronavirus cancellation last season and are set to open their third consecutive top-flight term with an away clash at Soyaux at Stade Lebon in Angouleme.

In the build-up to the season, they secured four wins in five warm-up games - Servette FC Chenois 2-1, Thonon-Evian 3-0, Standard Liege 2-1, Fleury 2-1 and only held on to a 2-2 draw by Reims.
