Striker Alassane Plea is to head up Nice's attack as they welcome Lorient to the Allianz Riviera in Ligue 1 this evening.
The lone striker is to be supported by a midfield five featuring Eric Bautheac, Nampalys Mendy, Niklas Hult, Valentin Eysseric and Carlos Eduardo.
Away side Lorient will look to Benjamin Jeannot and Sadio Diallo for their goals, as manager Sylvain Ripoll attempts to guide his team away from the lower end of the league table.
Midfield creativity is to be supplied by Walid Mesloub and Maxime Barthelme, while skipper Pedrinho will marshall his troops from defence.
Nice: Hassen; Puel, Amavi, Bodmer, Genevois, Eduardo, Eysseric, Hult, Mendy, Bautheac, Plea
Lorient: Lecomte; Pedrinho, Le Goff, Bellugou, Guerreiro, Wachter, Mostefa, Diallo, Mesloub, Barthelme, Jeannot
