AS Saint-Étienne will be without Mathieu Cafaro as they look to pick up a result away to Toulouse FC on Friday night.
The midfielder is suspended for the encounter. He is one of a number of absentees for Saint-Étienne, who are also without Yvann Maçon, Thomas Monconduit, Ben Old, Aïmen Moueffek, and Ibrahima Wadji. It means that Olivier Dall’Oglio’s options are limited as his side look to edge away from the relegation fight.
Up front it is Ibrahim Sissoko who looks set to start over Lucas Stassin in the No.9 position with star player Zuriko Davitashvili occupying his usual position on the wing. There is also a place in the line-up for former Sunderland midfielder Pierre Ekwah as ASSE look set to be deployed in a 4-3-3 formation.
