Angers seek spontaneity and sharper finishing before hosting Troyes | OneFootball

Angers host promoted Troyes in Ligue 1 on Saturday at 20:45, looking to ignite their season at Raymond-Kopa on matchday five. According to L'Équipe, head coach Stéphane Gilli wants greater attacking efficiency from his players.

Beaten at home by European contenders Lille, 0-2, and Rennes, 1-2, Angers are aiming to become more ruthless on their own pitch.

Gilli could have midfielder Haris Belkebla back after thigh surgery in late July, and he is considered a possible option for selection.

Angers returned from Le Havre with a 0-0 draw, but they hit the target only once despite 42 entries in the final 20 metres.

The coach has urged his side to show more spontaneity in attack as they prepare to face Troyes.
