After their convincing victory against the Carouge Star (3-1), AS Saint-Étienne continued its summer preparation with a second friendly match against ESTAC Troyes. This meeting, which will take place on Saturday 12 July at 5 p.m. at the Geoffroy-Guichard Stadium, will be held in camera but will be broadcast free live on the club’s official channel, ASSE.TV. For the Stéphanois staff, this game is an opportunity to assess the strength following the previous meeting, including a continuous evaluation of Eirik Horneland. The absence of Chico Lamba, a new addition to the defensive sector, is noteworthy, while Milaidinovic and Makhloufi should be present from the beginning of the meeting. Other players like Ben Old, Boakye and Tardieu will seek to confirm their current form.

ESTAC Troyes, relegated to Ligue 1 in 2023, aims to play an important role in Ligue 2 this season and has already posted encouraging performances in its friendly matches. After a positive triangular meeting against the Red Star and Paris 13 Atlético, the Troyese team is preparing for this new meeting. The live broadcast on YouTube is great news for the Stéphanois fans, allowing them to follow the team remotely before the start of the internship in Aix-les-Bains.

At the same time, AS Saint-Étienne will take advantage of its internship in Aix-les-Bains to face the Servette Genève as part of high-level installations. This intensive preparation aims to perfect the team’s game and ensure good physical fitness before the start of the season. The live broadcast of the match against ESTAC Troyes and the internship in Aix-les-Bains demonstrate the club’s commitment to maintain the link with its supporters and ensure optimal preparation for the new season.
