Lorient

Lorient go into the weekend with unchanged team news. Alexandre Dujeux is expected to stick with the side that beat Lens, with Panos Katseris and Noah Mbamba both keeping their places after each was given his first start of the season in that match.

Katseris' inclusion is likely to mean Théo Le Bris misses out again after two earlier starts on the right, even though there was little to choose between the pair when both featured. It's the same pattern in central midfield, where Noah Cadiou is preferred once more ahead of Arthur Avom.

Toulouse

Yann Gboho no longer features for Toulouse, with the winger out of the squad despite starting twice in the club's last three league matches.

Guillaume Restes is a doubt in goal after being withdrawn early, in the 71st minute, during the win over Lille, and Mathys Niflore is set to deputise between the posts. In midfield, Cristian Cásseres is set to continue in the holding role ahead of Alexis Vossah, having won 75 per cent of his duels there against 47 per cent for his rival.
