“ The Coupe de France is a priority“. Patrick Vieira didn’t beat around the bush when approaching this quarter-final against Olympique Lyonnais. If the Racing Club de Strasbourg is an outsider in this meeting, the Alsatian club does not hide its ambitions.
In the good news department, Vieira will be able to have greater latitude to concoct his starting lineup. Dilane Bakwa returns after serving his suspension. The Racing coach could also rely on Marvin Senaya and Thomas Delaine, unless Frédéric Guilbert slides onto the right side of the defense.
Vieira should rely on Gameiro’s experience
Some uncertainties nevertheless remain for this quarter-final. If he is present in the group for this trip, Diarra would not be in optimal shape. The other usual executives are expected at kick-off.
Vieira should rely on Gameiro’s experience at the forefront of his attack. The ex-French international would be supported by Bakwa and Angelo, while a trio composed of Mwanga, Sissoko and Doukouré is expected in the midfield, in front of a Sow-Perrin central hinge. Bellaarouch will hold her place in the goals.
The expected line-up for Strasbourg : Bellaarouch – Senaya, Sow, Perrin, Delaine – Mwanga, Sissoko, Doukouré – Bakwa, Gameiro (c), Angelo.
