AS Saint-Étienne — GW 9 · 28–31 Aug

4th round of L2 with a new away trip to promoted side Dijon. With 3 victories under their belt, the Cathro effect seems to be taking hold but caution is warranted. The opponents faced so far are likely to battle for survival and Les Verts will be expected everywhere. For now, no information regarding Breum's injury. Not much more on Ferreira's return even if nothing suggests he would be a starter. Old is back in collective training and JAber has never been closer to a return. The coach should however stick with the in-form players who won the first 3 matches. If Breum were unavailable it's highly likely that Davitashvili would replace him numerically. As for the rest, as long as the transfer window isn't closed, Stassin's situation remains unchanged.
