- Kevin Danso is set to undergo minor heart surgery, delaying his return after a failed medical which prevented his move to Roma.
- Danso could return to action as early as next month, the same expected recovery timeframe as Jimmy Cabot (knee) and Martin Satriano (calf).
- M'Bala Nzola, on loan from Fiorentina, scored his first goal for Lens in a dramatic added-time equaliser against Rennes and may be rewarded with his first start.
- Jhoanner Chaves returned late from international duty with Ecuador but started the draw against Rennes and is expected to retain his place at left wing-back.
- Franck Haise picked largely the same side that beat St Etienne 8-0 for their Europa League clash against Real Sociedad midweek.
- Tom Louchet and Badredine Bouanani replaced Tanguy Ndombele and the injured Mohamed-Ali Cho for that game.
- Cho remains a doubt along with Hichem Boudaoui, while Morgan Sanson is nearing a return.
- Confirmed absentees include Terem Moffi, Gaetan Laborde, and Jeremie Boga for this match.
