    With the absence of Facinet Conte for the season due to a cruciate ligament injury, and uncertainties regarding the other injured players’ return dates, coach Joël Magnin will have to rely on the depth of his squad.

    In midfield, the trio of Barella, Frattesi, and Mkhitaryan blend defensive robustness with creative flair, essential for controlling the game’s tempo. Wing-backs Dumfries and Augusto provide width and are crucial for stretching the play.
