Team News

Lille
Brest
  • José Fonte will miss out here after being forced off in Sunday's loss to PSG.
  • Alexsandro could also be an option to replace the veteran in defence.
  • Rémy Cabella is also in the frame in attack, while Timothy Weah seems to have become Paulo Fonseca's first choice at left-back.
  • Romain Del Castillo will join the Bretons' lengthy list of absences.
  • Christophe Hérelle also won't play here. Look for youngster Achraf Dari to get a start in defence.
  • Youngster Taïryk Arconte is also an option on the right flank.

Prediction

  • Lille will miss the veteran presence of Fonte, but their goalscoring form is something with which to be reckoned, especially at home, where they've averaged nearly two goals per game.
  • Brest had been five unbeaten but losses to Monaco and Montpellier in their last two matches see them perilously close to the relegation zone. A trip to the Stade Pierre-Mauroy is hardly ideal at this juncture.
