Frédéric Antonetti has an almost complete group for this crucial meeting, which the Strasbourg residents will have to respond to better than that against Brest on March 5 at home (0-1). The starting lineup should be the same as in Marseille last Sunday, except Guilbert (suspended) replaced position for position in central hinge by Doukouré, who served his suspension match.

Bellegarde’s return from injury will offer other possibilities to the Racing coach, but more likely off the bench, the best Strasbourg passer (4 help) having not played since January 14 in Lyon, where he was released half an hour into the game, hit in the ankle.

The group

The probable team : Salts – Dagba, Nyamsi, Djiku, Doukouré, Delaine – Sanson, Aholou, Liénard (cap) – Diallo, Gameiro.

Substitutes : Risser (g), Diarra, Perrin, Sissoko, Sobol, Prcic, Bellegarde, Kandil, Mothiba.

absenteeism : Le Marchand (ankle), Kawashima (recovery), Guilbert (suspended), Bouebari, Suzuki, Jean (choice)
