Lille predicted XI vs Nantes: Olivier Giroud to lead the line
Lille will be hoping to get back to winning ways as they travel to Nantes on Sunday night in Ligue 1 despite a positive result against Paris Saint-Germain last time out. Les Dogues held the UEFA Champions League winners to a draw last weekend.
L’Équipe reports that Bruno Genesio is set to make one change to his side that secured a point against Les Parisiens during the last round of action. The defence is set to remain unchanged, with Nathan Ngoy and Aïssa Mandi to resume their partnership at centre-back. Further up the pitch, there is set to be a reshuffle.
Nabil Bentaleb is set to drop to the bench with Félix Correia set to be promoted to the starting lineup as Genesio plans to change formation. Despite a reshuffle in positions, Olivier Giroud will continue to lead the line as he hopes to maintain his positive start to the season.
Lille likely XI vs Nantes:
Berke Özer – Thomas Meunier, Aïssa Mandi, Nathan Ngoy, Romain Perraud – Benjamin André, Ayyoub Bouaddi – Matías Fernández-Pardo, Hákon Arnar Haraldsson, Félix Correia – Olivier Giroud.
