Strasbourg predicted XI v Crystal Palace: Julio Enciso to start, Joaquín Panichelli on the bench

Joaquín Panichelli is set to start on the bench for RC Strasbourg Alsace when they take on Crystal Palace in the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday night.

The Argentine has been prolific this season, but his association with Emanuel Emegha in the last game did not work. As a result, he is set to drop to the bench; captain Emegha will lead the line. He will be flanked by Julio Enciso and Sébastien Nanasi.

Abdoul Ouattara is out for Strasbourg this evening and is expected to be out for around three weeks, whilst Maxi Oyedele is also not fit. Ben Chilwell is expected to start from the bench for Le Racing, as he comes up against the side with whom he spent last season on loan.
