Strasbourg predicted XI vs Le Havre: Emanuel Emegha and Junior Mwanga to start, Ismaël Doukouré out | OneFootball

Strasbourg will be hoping to pull themselves further away from the relegation zone as they face Le Havre at 2pm on Sunday in Ligue 1. Patrick Vieira is coming under increasing pressure at the Stade de la Meinau with Strasbourg winless in their last seven matches.

L’Équipe reports that the former Crystal Palace manager should make three changes from the side that rescued a point away at Brest last time out in the French top flight. Vieira is set to award Emanuel Emegha with a starting berth after his heroics against Brest from the bench – scoring a late equaliser to secure a point. The reintroduction of Emegha should see Mothiba drop to the bench.

The former Arsenal and Manchester City midfielder should reinstate Junior Mwanga to the Strasbourg midfield with Ismaël Doukouré unavailable due to injury. Vieira is also expected to make one change in defence with Thomas Delaine replacing Frédéric Guilbert at full back.

Strasbourg likely XI vs Le Havre:

Mats Sels – Marvin Senaya, Lucas Perrin, Abakar Sylla, Thomas Delaine –  Ibrahima Sissoko, Junior Mwanga – Dilane Bakwa, Kevin Gameiro, Habib Diarra – Emanuel Emegha.
