Bavois vs Chênois - Friendlies Clubs

A fascinating Friendlies Clubs chapter awaits on July 15, 2026 when Bavois take on Chênois at the home ground — two sides with plenty to play for and everything to prove. Manchester United play in Gothenburg on Saturday as they take on Paris-Saint Germain in their fourth pre-season fixture.

Form and standings can only tell part of the story when Bavois and Chênois cross paths in the Friendlies Clubs, and pride alone should guarantee a contest. Bavois will be keen to seize the initiative and build some momentum on home soil. The visitors will back themselves to cause problems and will not make the trip expecting an easy afternoon. One position every Premier League club still needs to strengthen in before the transfer window closes.

Stylistically, this is a compelling matchup. Bavois favour a patient, possession-based approach, whereas Chênois are at their most dangerous when allowed to hit quickly on the counter. City also want to continue improving their attack, with a top left-winger still in the offing too.

Individual moments of quality could tip the balance. Both sides possess players capable of producing something out of nothing, and a single flash of brilliance may be all that separates them. Discipline at the back and sharpness in front of goal will likely tilt the balance one way or the other. St Johnstone twice gave up a lead before storming back to edge a seven-goal thriller on their Scottish Premiership return at home to Kilmarnock.

Predicting an outright winner is no easy task given how little separates the two sides on paper. The signals point towards a stalemate, with the two sides closely matched across form and standings. A 1-1 draw is easy to envisage. Whatever the outcome, the Friendlies Clubs fixture promises a meaningful contest with real implications for both clubs.
