  • 33' Naouirou Ahamada has been relatively quiet despite scoring 2 goals in his last 438 appearances.
  • 38' 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 Yoane Wissa suffering a number of foals already.
