Pre-match preview

Auxerre

Auxerre face another decision at left centre-back, with Elikya Legros doubtful because of a knee injury. Legros started against Lyon after Christ Makosso had occupied the position earlier in the season, but Makosso is expected to play against Nice. New signing Axel Tuanzebe is the alternative and will be included in the squad for the first time, although he is not expected to complete the full match if selected.

Cameron Archer is expected to lead the attack again after scoring on his first start against Lyon. Rémy Labeau Lascary should also retain his place on the left after scoring once across Auxerre's opening three matches.

Nice

Melvin Bard has left Nice after starting two of their first three matches, requiring another change on the left against Auxerre. Niels Nkounkou is expected to retain his place there after making his first start against Le Mans.

At right-back, Mohamed Abdelmonem is set to continue ahead of Antoine Mendy, who is unavailable with a knee injury. Axel Witsel is expected in central midfield despite Everton Pereira’s strong display on his only start there. Further forward, Gauthier Hein and Mohamed Amoura are competing for one position. Moïse Bombito is out for months and requires another operation on his tibia.
