- 0' The ball is rolling at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard. AS Saint-Étienne are looking to make home advantage count against Lille OSC.
- 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
- 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Robert Beric suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' It looks surprising Lille OSC does not make any changes. Mike Maignan has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
