A champion of France to start
Claude Puel and his family were to start with a five-star trip to Marseille last week. The duel against OM postponed, they will finally start their season with the reception of FC Lorient, promoted and reigning French Ligue 2 BKT Champion. Almost six months after their last league game, the Stéphanois will aim for a perfect start, after the international break with another reception, that of Strasbourg.

Group update
Claude Puel has called 21 players for this first official match of the season. The good news comes from Kévin Monnet-Paquet, absent for many months, and back in the group. Adil Aouchiche and Yvan Neyou, the two summer recruits, are present.

Lorient on its way
Absent for three seasons, the Hakes are finally back on the elite, they who have long stumbled on the goal of a comeback. First in the Ligue 2 BKT standings before the end of competition last March, they happily regained the taste of the elite last weekend. Although led at the break, they finally dominated Strasbourg after a convincing second period (3-1). Morbihan summer rookie Adrien Grbic has already scored after signing 17 goals in 4 assists in 26 Ligue 2 appearances last season. The Austrian will be the most concrete threat for the Lorient this afternoon.
