Team News

Lens
Lorient
  • Young midfielder Neil El Yanaoui's season is over following an ankle injury suffered against Marseille.
  • Jonathan Gradit is back from suspension and should start in defence.
  • Angelo Fulgini and Wesley Saïd are also options in attack.
  • Laurent Abergel is fit again, having featured in the loss to Toulouse at the weekend.
  • Defender Formose Mendy and attacker Ayman Kari have both been ruled out for the visitors.
  • Darlin Yongwa is also an option on the left flank.

Prediction

  • This is a massive opportunity for Lorient to put pressure on the sides above them ahead of their matches later in the weekend, but one has to wonder if their list of absences may prove insurmountable.
  • Lens will be gutted to have lost at the Vélodrôme last weekend, but will be well up for this match as they still harbor ambitions of securing a place in Europe for next season.
