48 hours before a very important 12th day of Ligue 1 against Montpellier (last, 3 points behind the Greens), AS Saint-Étienne coach Olivier Dall’Oglio took stock this Thursday at noon on the status of its workforce.
Absent for several weeks following a knee injury contracted at the end of August in Brest, the full-back Yvann Maçon felt new pain in his knee following the derby against Olympique Lyonnais on November 10. The Guadeloupean will forfeit against Montpellier and must stay away from the field for ten to fifteen days.
Victim of a muscular alert during the international break with his selection of the Democratic Republic of Congo, the defender Dylan Batubinsika is doing well and will be operational this weekend. Good news for a Saint-Etienne defense deprived of Yvann Maçon and Mickaël Nadéunavailable at least until mid-December following an external sprain of the lateral ligament of a knee during the last derby in Lyon.
Batubinsika operational just like the other internationals. Zuri Davitashvili (Georgia) or Lucas Stassin (Belgium) return without the slightest glitch following this international break. Suspended during the last day in Lyon, the winger Matthew Cafaro will make his return against Montpellier.
Absent since the start of the season, the defender Anthony Briançon and the middle Thomas Monconduit are continuing their recovery phase.
