The Ligue 1 tie at Stade de la Mosson on Friday sees hosts Montpellier play visiting opponents Nantes, so let’s look at the latest injury news and predicted line ups.
Montpellier are hoping to win again following the 1-2 Ligue 1 success versus Reims. In our view, La Paillade will possibly opt for a 4-2-3-1 system this time, beginning the first half with Benjamin Lecomte, Enzo Tchato, Becir Omeragic, Modibo Sagnan, L. Mincarelli Davin, Leo Leroy, Joris Chotard, Arnaud Nordin, Teji Savanier, Tanguy Coulibaly and Wahbi Khazri.
Montpellier boss Michel Der Zakarian does not have any fitness concerns at all before this game thanks to a completely injury-free group available for selection.
How Montpellier could look against Nantes
After a loss in their previous game against Rennes in Ligue 1 action, Nantes and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one. We believe Les Canaris could decide to elect for a 4-2-3-1 system, starting Alban Lafont, Jean-Kevin Duverne, J. Castelletto, Nicolas Pallois, Kelvin Amian, Samuel Moutoussamy, Pedro Chirivella, Florent Mollet, Moussa Sissoko, Abdoul Kader Bamba and Mostafa Mohamed.
Nantes boss Antoine Kombouaré has a number of players out of action. Bastien Meupiyou (Meniscus damage), Moses Simon (Broken fibula) and Ignatius Ganago (Cruciate ligament tear) will miss out on this game.
