Lorient

Lorient look set to restore Gabin Bernardeau to the starting eleven. He appeared as a substitute against Angers after starting the previous three matches, in each of which he was withdrawn during the second half.

Panos Katseris remains doubtful because of a muscle injury after starting twice in the last five matches. Jean-Victor Makengo and Kan Kouassi have each supplied an assist in that spell, while Noah Cadiou has scored once.

At the back, Montassar Talbi has started every match in that period. Dembo Sylla is also expected to continue at right-back after starting all five, with Yvon Mvogo retaining his place in goal.

Brest

Brest will be without Raphaël Le Guen after he broke his leg, with Lucas Tousart expected to continue in central defence. Giovani Versini remains doubtful because of a lower-leg injury and is not expected to start, while Brendan Chardonnet is also doubtful with a calf problem.

Ludovic Ajorque, who has scored twice and set up another goal in the last five matches, should continue to lead the line, with Pathé Mboup — also on two goals and an assist — in support. Kamory Doumbia has started all five matches, and Mama Baldé, with two goals from three starts, is expected to complete the attack.
