On the occasion of the 31st round of Ligue 1, Valenciennes will face Montpellier this Saturday, but they will do so without their top scorer, Majeed Waris. The Ghanaian international striker, who has been Valenciennes’ most potent attacking threat since the second half of the season, will miss this crucial match in their battle for survival due to an injury. Additionally, the absence of Ivorian defender Benjamin Angoua further compounds the challenge for Ariel Jacobs, Valenciennes’ coach.
Despite the absence of Waris, who has scored eight goals in 11 matches since his return from the winter transfer window, Valenciennes will look to produce a positive result if they can overcome their recent poor performance.
The Valenciennes squad for the match includes:
- Goalkeepers: Novaes, Penneteau
- Defenders: Ciss, Kagelmacher, Lala, Masuaku, Medjani, Nery
- Midfielders: Da Silva, Dossevi, Doumbia, Ducourtioux, Enza-Yamissi, Houri, Melikson
- Forwards: Bahebeck, Le Tallec, Pujol
