Team News

Lorient
Nice
  • After an impressive scoreless draw in Paris last weekend, don't expect Les Merlus to make any changes.
  • New signing Formose Mendy could also feature in central defence.
  • Despite struggling to break down an injury-hit Lille side last week, it's unlikely that Les Aiglons will make many, if any changes here.
  • Sofiane Diop could be an option in attack, as could striker Evann Guessand.

Prediction

  • Lorient are likely to rely far more on their defensive fortitude this season, given the departures of Enzo Le Fée and Terem Moffi and that should be on full display here.
  • Nice's lack of options in attack makes them look similarly limited -- don't expect this to be a high-octane encounter.
