OGC Nice returns to Allianz Riviera as part of the 13th day of Ligue 1 to face MHSC, who defeated Nantes on the previous matchday.
After two away games against Marseille in Troyes (1-1) and in Angers (1-2), the Gym returns to its home ground to grab three points against Montpellier, who are in 11th place, this Sunday at 5 PM. Dall’Oglio’s men secured a 2-0 victory against Nantes on Sunday, while Nice climbed to second place in the league thanks to Andy Delort, who scored twice against Angers.
The Eaglets can once again rely on the Algerian international who will surely wish to continue his fine form against the club of his heart and his region. But there’s no doubt that his former teammates will keep an eye on him. Christophe Galtier can also count on another forward: Kasper Dolberg, who was absent for the last two matches due to family reasons.
On the Montpellier side, there are several players to watch: Stephy Mavididi, a lively winger and dribbler who has already scored 3 goals and provided 3 assists this season, Valère Germain, the former Nice striker who has also scored 3 goals, and finally the playmaker of La Paillade, Téji Savanier, who has been impressive at the start of this season and is on the brink of joining the French team.
For this home match, the lineups should be as follows:
OGC Nice in 4-4-2:
Benitez – Atal, Todibo, Dante, Bard – Boudaoui, Lemina, Rosario, Gouiri or Kamara – Delort, Dolberg or Gouiri
Montpellier HSC in 4-2-3-1:
Omlin – Sambia, Esteve, Sakho, Ristic or Oyongo – Ferri, Chotard or Savanier – Mollet or Wahi, Savanier or Mollet, Mavididi – Germain or Wahi
