Nice 0-1 Nantes - Coupe de France 2021/2022 Statistical Preview

Marcin Bulka has been Les Aiglons' cup goalkeeper, and should keep his place here.
Morgan Schneiderlin is fit again, but is unlikely to feature from the off.
With Youcef Atal and Alexis Claude-Maurice out, Christophe Galtier should field a strong XI here.

Perdo Chrivella is fit again after featuring in the draw away to Lens.
Nantes will recover the suspended trio of Ludovic Blas, Andrei Girotto, and Fábio.
Alban Lafont is expected to start in goal, rather than reserve Rémy Descamps.
Wylan Cyprien is also in contention in central midfield for Les Canaris.

Prediction

The immovable object against the immovable object? Both of these sides have shown flashes of attacking ambition this season, but have made a solid defence a better part of their calling card in reaching this match, and this one could have a rather attritional feeling to it.
Nice may look to have the edge in the likes of Delort and Gouiri, but don't underestimate Nantes' skill at playing on the counter -- Moses Simon and Randal Kolo Muani are a tall order for any defence.
