Saint-Étienne Eyes Europa League Spot Ahead of Nantes Clash
With only two matchdays remaining in the Ligue 1 season, Saint-Étienne is on the brink of securing a spot in the Europa League for next season. To definitively confirm their 4th-place finish, Christophe Galtier’s men must claim at least one victory in their final matches, or risk being overtaken by rivals Lyon.
This Saturday, the Greens head to La Beaujoire to face FC Nantes in a crucial Matchday 37 encounter. The team is expected to approach the match with a calm yet determined mindset, understanding the importance of securing the necessary points to guarantee their European competition spot.
Galtier has named an 18-man squad for the trip to Nantes, although he will have to do without the services of Josuha Guilavogui and Benoît Trémoulinas, who are sidelined due to injury. Despite the absences, the Saint-Étienne squad remains focused on achieving their objective.
Here is the full squad for Saint-Étienne’s match against FC Nantes:
Goalkeepers: Ruffier, Moulin
Defenders: Perrin, Bayal Sall, Brison, Zouma, Baysse
Midfielders: Pogba, Corgnet, Cohade, Lemoine, Clément, Diomandé
Forwards: Brandao, Tabanou, Erding, Hamouma, Gradel
Saint-Étienne will be aiming to finish the season strong and secure a coveted Europa League berth, with the added pressure of their city rivals lurking just behind them in the standings.
