Going to AFCON with Angola
Mata is going to AFCON with Angola and will miss two-to-three weeks.
ANALYSIS
Mata is set to miss a few weeks while away with Angola for AFCON. Depending on how far Angola make it in the tournament Mata could miss an extended period of time. Mata has been a consistent piece of the starting XI whenever available, but should only miss a single match with Ligue 1 on winter break.
