Troyes

Paolo Gozzi is expected to continue at left-back for Troyes in place of Anis Ouzenadji. Ouzenadji has started four of the last five matches there but remains out through injury, while Gozzi played the full ninety minutes in the home defeat to Marseille.

Michel Diaz is expected to start over Junior Diaz in central defence, with the two players the alternatives for that place, while Lucas Maronnier holds the right-back role ahead of Noah Donkor. Troyes sit 17th with four points and have lost four of their last five games, with Dumont's side still searching for a response as Lens visit this weekend.

Lens

Abdallah Sima is a doubt for Lens' trip to Troyes with a muscle injury and is not expected to start, having made three starts in the last five matches. Florian Sotoca is expected to come into the attack after scoring on his only start during that run.

Samson Baidoo keeps his place in the back three after making his first start against Sporting CP. Kyllian Antonio is also expected to start, while Ismaelo Ganiou and Pierre Ganiou are the alternatives for the other central-defensive place. Lens sit 10th with seven points and head to Troyes after a run that includes a home win over Lyon.
