Strasbourg predicted XI v Angers: Caleb Wiley out, Djordje Petrovic to start | OneFootball

Looking to bounce back after their second-half collapse against Olympique Lyonnais, RC Strasbourg Alsace face SCO Angers at the Meinau on Sunday afternoon.

For the fixture, Liam Rosenior has almost a full squad to pick from. Moise Sahi Dion and Thomas Delaine are the two notable absentees with injuries, whilst Chelsea loanee Caleb Wiley has been left out of the squad. The defender is being allowed to recover after a late return from international duty with the USMNT.

However, there could be a debut for another Chelsea loanee, Djordje Petrovic. He is expected to be Strasbourg’s No.1 this season, especially with Alaa Bellaarouch sidelined with a medium-term injury. Diego Moreria, signed from Chelsea, could find himself playing in an unfamiliar left-back role.
