Team News

Montpellier
Lorient
  • Wahbi Khazri returns from suspension and could be an option in attack.
  • Save Khazri, it's unlikely the hosts make many changes off the back off a vital win away to Le Havre last weekend.
  • Becir Omeragic was played in a holding role last weekend and could do the same here.
  • Aiyegun Tosin will serve the second game of a two-match ban.
  • Théo Le Bris and Ayman Kari are also options in attack.

Prediction

  • A draw would suit Montpellier just fine, but it remains to be seen if La Paillade can maintain that level of solidity.
  • Lorient are known for their effectiveness on the counter and it's uncertain if they'll be able to have much joy against an opponent with a similar approach.
