Toulouse predicted XI v Benfica: Stijn Spierings to start | OneFootball

Carles Martinez Novell has no fresh injury concerns as Toulouse FC prepare to face Benfica in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday.

Toulouse head into the tie with confidence and without injury concerns. The French side gave a good account of themselves in Portugal last week and will feel unlucky to have lost the game in the dying stages after conceding a contentious penalty. However, following that disappointment, Le TéFéCé then went on to shock AS Monaco at the Stade Louis II on Sunday.

Frank Magri and Cristian Casseres are notably expected to drop to the bench with Aron Donnum and Stijn Speirings expected to take their place against Benfica. Christian Mawissa, who was sent off in the dying seconds in the first leg, misses out through suspension.
