Clinton Mata suspended in Ligue 1, chance to rest before Celta return

Clinton Mata will miss Sunday’s Ligue 1 fixture through suspension, a timely pause before the Europa League last-16 return against Celta four days later.

Le Progres reports that the defender has been Paulo Fonseca’s most used player this season.

The ban spares him a journey and an extra match at Le Havre against HAC.

Even so, he had been ready to go again, used to gritting his teeth when fatigue bites or when knocks sting a little more.

Given that workload, the pause will not be insignificant.
