This Saturday, Toulouse will see the return of Akpa-Akpro to the pitch as they prepare to host Lille in the 32nd round of Ligue 1 at the stadium. Coach Alain Casanova will have his full-back available for selection. The Ivorian player has recovered from his hip ailment (iliac crest) and is ready to take on Lille.
However, Moudandjé, who has been sidelined with a right thigh injury for the past three months, participated in group training this week but hasn’t been included in the squad. Similarly, Jonathan Zebina, who stirred controversy by taking and missing a penalty against Ajaccio that should have been Wissam Ben Yedder’s, has been omitted from the coach’s selection for this match.
Despite Toulouse currently occupying the 8th position in the standings, trailing by four points behind fifth place, their performance at the Stadium has been lackluster. Securing European qualification undoubtedly necessitates maximizing points earned at home in the remaining matches of the season.
The Toulouse squad for the upcoming match includes: Goalkeepers: Ahamada, Boucher Defenders: Aurier, I.Sylla, Veskovac, Ninkov, Yago, Spajic, Akpa-Akpro Midfielders: Chantôme, Aguilar, E.Didot, Furman, Sirieix, Trejo, Regattin, Roman Forwards: Ben Basat, Ben Yedder
