Team News

Nantes
Strasbourg
  • Midfielder Douglas Augusto misses out through suspension.
  • Kelvin Amian is fit again having started against Marseille last weekend.
  • Nantes are likely to switch to a more attack-minded 3-4-3, compared to the 3-5-2 they played last weekend.
  • Both Junior Mwanga and Ibrahima Sissoko miss out here for an accumulation of bookings.
  • Jessy Deminguet and Abakar Syalla are close to a return but won't feature here.
  • With a raft of absences in midfield, Patrick Vieira will be forced to deploy an unfamiliar pairing centrally.

Prediction

  • The race to avoid relegation remains tight indeed, and this matchup is no doubt the one with the biggest implications in that regard this weekend.
  • Strasbourg have showed a renewed solidity since switching back to a three-man defence, and look well-positioned to get a result on the road.
