Team News

Nice
Lorient
  • Dante should return to the eleven after missing Les Aiglons' European match through suspension.
  • Nicolas Pépé came off the bench in the week, but is unlikely to be included from the off.
  • Hicham Bouadoui was a late scratch on Thursday with a hip injury and remains a doubt.
  • It should be as you were for the visitors after a comfortable win over Troyes last weekend.
  • After scoring late on off the bench, Stéphane Diarra could also be an option on the right flank.
  • Yoann Cathline and Julien Ponceau are also in the frame in attack.

Prediction

  • This match has massive implications in the battle for Europe; with a draw doing neither side much good, expect an open affair.
  • Nice will be at a disadvantage having played in midweek and dealing with several injuries, but the individual quality at Didier Digard's disposal means this should be an closely contested affair.
