Montpellier welcomes Nantes for the 31st day of Ligue 1, this Friday (9 p.m.). Here is the expected lineup for the Canaries.
Despite a burst of pride after the arrival of Antoine Kombouaré, FC Nantes is not yet out of the woods in its maintenance mission. The Canaries travel to Montpellier for a meeting of the highest importance against a direct competitor.
“ I arrived here on a mission for eight matches and therefore, eight finals. Tomorrow, there will be a new one, warned Antoine Kombouaré. After tomorrow’s match, there will still be three finals left. Against Rennes, with the arguments we had, it was complicated. There, we will have arguments to pose problems for this Montpellier HSC team. As a reminder and I sincerely mean it, against Rennes, we were powerless. Even me. It’s the first time I felt like that on the bench. Yes, they were better than us but it’s the story of one match. A match that is behind us and we are projected onto tomorrow evening’s meeting. »
An absence to fill for Nantes
With which starting eleven? Kombouaré records several valuable returns. “ We are happy to have the feedback from Tino Kadewere and Matthis Abline. On the other hand, we will not be able to count on Douglas Augusto, who will be absent after his injury in front of Stade Rennais. He has pain in his upper thigh and hasn’t been able to train all week. Unfortunately, he may be bothered a little longer than expected. He felt heaviness on a strike during the meeting. »
With the absence of Doubles Augusto, Nantes should rely on a Sissoko-Chirivella-Moutoussamy trio in its midfield. In attack, Coco and Mollet are expected to support Mohamed. The Pallois-Castelleto tandem holds its own in central defense. The font will hold its place in the goals.
The expected line-up for Nantes: Lafont – Amian, Castelletto, Pallois, Duverne – Sissoko, Chirivella, Moutoussamy – Coco, Mohamed, Mollet.
