Apart from Sofiane Diop, who is out until next season, Francesco Farioli has a full squad to choose from as Le Gym host Le Havre on Friday (9pm CEST).

“The fact of having a full squad available finally means I can make choices, whether that’s for the starting XI or those who come off the bench,” said the Italian coach, who dismissed suggestions of rotating his squad with three games in 10 days. “I like to take things game by game, not make too many calculations. We’re in the final straight and more than the physical state of the players, it’s really the mental side of things and the desire that makes the difference.”
