If he doesn't “not turn for the sake of turning”Éric Roy however conceded on Friday that there would be more turnover than he had initially planned for this trip to Montpellier, this Sunday (5 p.m.), which comes four days after the new feat in the Champions League .
If he gave few indications, the Ti-Zefs coach should line up players on the bench from the start on Wednesday, like Del Castillo or Magnetti. Jonas Martin could also start.
Behind, Le Cardinal could be lined up in the right lane, while Brendan Chardonnet would play his 150th Ligue 1 match with Brest.

Pereira Lage en verve
The Brest coach could, on the other hand, put some executives to rest like Lees-Melou, Camara or Lala who accumulate playing time.
On the left side of the attack, Mathias Pereira Lage could start, he who was very disappointed not to return against Nice last week at home.
The versatile player makes good starts and he has been in good spirits against Montpellier in recent seasons. He has found the net in three of his last five matches against La Paillade and notably in his last two trips to La Mosson.

Khazri returns
On the Montpellier side, Jean-Louis Gasset still has to deal with an avalanche of injuries. Returning to the head of a team in great difficulty which remains on five defeats, he decided to return to a four-man defense and revive Khazri who Der Zakarian had put on the bench.
