The lights turn green for several MHSC players before the trip to Saint-Etienne

Has the truce given heart to the work? Through its 50th anniversary, Montpellier recalled its sense of celebration, its taste for life and perhaps spread the ancestral virtues necessary to ensure its survival in Ligue 1.

The truce has accelerated the convalescence time, to say the least. Four or five players, Joris Chotard, Becir Omeragic, Khalil Fayad, Théo Sainte-Luce or Yanis Issoufou, recovered from muscle injuries, are applying for a place to face Saint-Etienne on Saturday November 23 (7 p.m.) at the Geoffroy-Guichard stadium in a essential meeting between two poorly classified. Between the red lantern and the roadblock.
Midfielder Chotard and Swiss central defender Omeragic, keystones of the defensive sector, were injured on October 20 against Marseille (0-5). Both have recovered from a torn thigh.

The Olympic vice-champion has returned to collective training and will regain his starting place. Omeragic is continuing individualized training at the start of the week before joining the group shortly.
Finally, Fayad, who has been suffering from a tear in his quadriceps since May 20 and the trip to Lens, interrupted the session, as did the young striker Issoufou, victim of a serious tear in his thigh for his first start on September 23 in front of Auxerre. .
Among the left-backs, Sainte-Luce, injured in the thigh during training, is also operational unlike Lucas Mincarelli.

Young Franco-Moroccan winger Othmane Maamma underwent an MRI on Tuesday after feeling muscle pain. The Moroccan U20 international, who played two matches with his selection during the international break, is currently uncertain.

Akor Adams absent

Midfielder Rabby Nzingoula, called up to the France U20 team, also played two games in three days but is ready to play against the Greens.
The other four selected: Jordanian winger Mousa Tamari, Guinean full-back Issiaga Sylla, Franco-Congolese goalkeeper Dimitry Bertaud and Serbian international hopeful Stefan Dzodic will join Montpellier in the coming days after playing on Tuesday.

For several weeks, perhaps until the winter break, Montpellier will have to learn to play without its center forward Akor Adams. Injured in the right thigh during the success against Brest (3-1), the Nigerian striker (24 years old) underwent a battery of examinations, which revealed the seriousness of his injury. To replace the athletic attacker, author of three goals and two assists, coach Jean-Louis Gasset does not have a thousand solutions. And, Wahbi Khazri should once again continue at the forefront of the Hérault attack.

Montpellier, which is accumulating warnings and expulsions, will be deprived of its defensive midfielders, Jordan Ferri and Birama Touré, suspended. Conversely, he recovers the playmaker Téji Savanier and the young Dzodic, excluded respectively in front of Toulouse and Marseille.
To get everyone back on track, Montpellier will take the road to Saint-Etienne on Friday morning. Just to remind everyone that the party is over.
