OGC Nice predicted XI v Lorient: Mohamed-Ali Cho to start in No.9 role

With Elye Wahi out for several weeks, OGC Nice have a dilemma up front. It is Mohamed-Ali Cho who is expected to be given the nod on Sunday afternoon against FC Lorient.

Wahi was injured just seconds into last weekend’s 2-0 defeat to Olympique Lyonnais. It was confirmed that he had sustained an ankle sprain and would miss several weeks of action. Kevin Carlos is the natural replacement, however, the Spaniard has struggled since making the move from Basel back in the summer. 

As a result, it is expected to be Cho, who is more used to playing off the right, who is expected to be moved into the central area. It means that academy product Kail Boudache will come in on the right-hand side.
