For its penultimate preparation match, Stade de Reims will return to the Auguste-Delaune stadium this Sunday evening (7 p.m.), against Villarreal. The Spanish team should allow him to see familiar faces, in this case his former players Aissa Mandi and Boulaye Dia. Beyond this reunion, there is obviously a sporting importance two weeks before the resumption of Ligue 1, against the last Champions League semi-finalist against Liverpool.

No type team in sight yet
Will we see the beginnings of the team that will start at the Vélodrome stadium on Sunday August 7 at 8:45 p.m.? » No, I do not think soanswered the trainer, Oscar Garcia. There may be players who we thought could start and who will be injured, or who will have had the Covid, and who will not be ready to start the match. I will make a composition with the players on whom I can count. »
It must be said that the Spanish technician knows that it is necessary to take tweezers in these conditions, he had to face several physical glitches in his workforce during this preparation: Matusiwa (ankle), Maxime Busi (adductor), Thomas Foket (ischio ). As recently as Wednesday, he had to make a change in the first half after Dion Lopy’s exit after a blow to the thigh. The Covid, on the other hand, seems to be only a memory for certain players who have returned to the field, such as Jens Cadjus and Rafik Guitane.
