Creates two chances against Strasbourg David made a clearance and created two chances in Sunday's 1-0 victory against Strasbourg. He also won one of one tackles in the match.

Takes three shots in defeat David had three shots (off target), two dribbles and one tackle won in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Lens.

He's only scored once since the turn of the year and 2022 remains a disastrous one for him.

Impact David played a World Cup qualifier with Canada early Thursday morning and then had to travel from Panama back to Canada and from there back to Europe. While he made it back on time to get in the group for the game he may as well be dealing with some fatigue which could keep him on the bench with Hatem Ben Arfa leading the line alongside Burak Yilmaz.
