USAP will be deprived of Jeronimo De La Fuente for the reception of Racing. The three-quarter center was injured during the match in Clermont and probably suffers from a sprained knee (awaiting the precise results of the examination).
The USAP must especially deal with an epidemic of influenza for a week. Several players were affected and even on the day of the match in Clermont with two last-minute packages. On the evening of the Clermont match, a player was also ill. The series continues with at least two new sick players at the start of the week, so much so that this Monday’s training program has been modified and shortened. Players who have tested negative for COVID.
Uncertainties and returns to face Racing
The Catalan club has other uncertainties for the reception of Racing: will winger Alivereti Duguivalu be operational again? It is still uncertain. Ditto for the pillar Sacha Lotrian (foot). Both players will be tested in training on Thursday.
Injured or ill last week, several players are operational again: Arthur Joly, Sami Mavinga, Matthieu Ugéna, Davit Kubriashvili, Alan Brazo (calf) and George Tilsley (adductors). Sadek Deghmache (calf) who missed the last three meetings is operational again.
