[CdF] The probable Girondins4Ever line-up for Bordeaux-Rennes

This Sunday, December 22 at 2:45 p.m., the Girondins de Bordeaux receive on their lawn at the Stade Matmut Atlantique – René Gallice, the team of Stade Rennaison behalf of 1/32nd finals of the Coupe de France. Here is all the information on this meeting.

The absent/returned

For this meeting, Bruno Irles must deal with a group that is complete or almost complete. Absent for many weeks
Youssouf Assogba was finally able to play again. The Beninese international full-back was with the National 3 group last week. It will therefore be available. There is therefore a spoiled choice for the Bordeaux technician, which will once again force certain players to be sent to the reserve team. Absent from Friday training, there was doubt about the presence or not ofAndy Carroll for this Coupe de France match. He was spared, but trained on Saturday, and should hold his place.

While the National 3 group is on vacation for several days, Nassim Ranem, Nama Fofana, Issam Ben Khemis, Safouane Karim et Malhory Night
are still present in group N2. So they apply for this Sunday.

Among those absent from this meeting, there are therefore all those who are on vacation:
Georges Grimaud, Glenn Younousse, Jonathan Abonckelet, Hugo Capblanne, Adam Daoudi, Sékou Fofana, Maël Morigny, Omar Sané, Nolan Bonte, Younès Kaabouni, Nathan Benmoussa, Ranhi Moreau Nguyen, Fils-JunWhissy Ndong Bibang, Mah Zuccolotto, Tom Pottier Seck, Pope Mass Djitté, Jérémy Grain, Sofiane Achour, Dian Jacky, Nolan Muteba, Hamidou Yameogo.

The explanations

For this match in the 1/32nd finals of the Coupe de France, Bruno Irles will have to decide with a very large group.

The Girondins can count on the presence of Lassana Diabaté for the reception of the Bretons. Over Mandanda he will be goalkeeper number two.

In defense, Cédric Yambéré will logically start with the captain's armband. He should again find himself with Djibril Diaw in the axis of defense, even if Jean Grillot could snatch his place at the last moment. In the left corridor, Driss Trichardt logically retains his position. For his part,
Nathanaël Baï should find a starting place in the right lane.

In the midfield,
Adrien Louveau will be logically aligned and should have Thomas Trazié
by his side once again. Emeric Depussay started on the bench in the last match. To lead the game, Yanis Merdji once again seems ideal. But in the event that English was absent, he would therefore take the lead at number 9 and it would undoubtedly be Travis Mutyaba who would be in a leadership role.

On the offensive level
Soufiane Bahassa seems assured of starting with regular performances. Amadou Diallo has been favored by the coach for quite some time so he should occupy the left wing of the Bordeaux attack. It remains to be seen whether
Andy Carroll will be present. If he is there, no debate about the player at the forefront. Otherwise, Yanis Merdji would take the position.
