Team News

Nice
Lens
  • Youssouf Ndayishimiye will miss out here for an accumulation of bookings -- Hicham Boudaoui should take his place at the base of midfield.
  • With Jean-Clair Todibo suspended, look for Pablo Rosario to partner Dante in defence.
  • Terem Moffi remains a doubt and might only be fit enough for the bench.
  • Florian Sotoca and Facundo Medina are back from suspension, but the hosts will be without Jonathan Gradit and Kevin Danso.
  • Youngster Abduqodir Khusanov will join Massadio Haïdara in shoring up the visitors' defence in their absence.
  • Neil El Aynaoui has impressed of late and should keep his place in midfield.

Prediction

  • The absences of Todibo and Ndayishimiye, both vital parts of the hosts' defensive strength, make this a difficult encounter to call.
  • This is doubly so for Lens -- Danso and Gradit have been crucial to the team's strong play under Franck Haise, but the potential absence of Moffi could be key for a win for Les Sang et Or.
