Early match data and tactical notes

Luis Enrique has rotated his squad, leaving Dembélé and Nuno Mendes on the bench, while the rest of the starting eleven remain fresh. The absence of Dembélé and Mendes signals a cautious approach ahead of the international break.

Le Mans coach Patrick Videira told Ligue 1+ that there is « toujours de l'espoir » but warned that if the Parisians are having a great day, « il n'y aura pas photo » between the two sides.
