The bench is composed of Kerckaert, Becker, Biten, Ferro, Kodia, Perea and Lukovic. This match follows another friendly match played earlier in the day in Stuttgart against the local club, which allowed the rest of the staff to regain the rhythm.

This series of friends is part of the preparation of the Racing after the cancellation of their match against Heidehheim in Austria last Saturday. To remedy this absence, the club planned a closed meeting this afternoon against Stuttgart, followed by a confrontation against the Sturm Graz. This logistics strategy is put in place to maintain the intensity of the trainings and avoid a loss of pace as the recovery of the League 1 approaches. One group of players will go to Stuttgart while the other will go to Mainz for two matches.

The last week of preparation for the Racing will therefore be intensive, with four games in four days, half of which in camera total. These meetings are used to refine the strategy and to maintain the physical condition of the players before the recovery of the Ligue 1 on Sunday 17 in Metz. The club will also have to focus on the going dam of League Conference scheduled on Thursday 21 to the Meinau against Víkingur Reykjavík (ISL) or Brøndby IF (DEN). These matches are crucial for the season and require careful preparation.
