Nantes predicted XI vs Lyon: Anthony Lopes returns to OL

Nantes travel to Lyon on Sunday evening in Ligue 1. Les Canaris will be aiming to secure three points against Les Gones and end a four-match run in the French top flight without a victory.

L’Équipe understands that Luís Castro is set to make two changes to his team that drew 1-1 with Lorient last time out. The defence is set to remain unchanged. However, in midfield, a former Lyon player, Johan Lepennant, is set to be promoted to the starting eleven in place of Dehmaine Tadibou.

In attack, Matthis Abline and Youssef El Arabi are set to keep their spots, but Herba Guirassy looks set to replace Mayckel Lahdo. Between the posts, Anthony Lopes is set for a return to his boyhood club.

Anthony Lopes – Nicolas Cozza, Tylel Tati, Chidozie Awaziem, Kelvin Amian – Junior Mwanga, Kwon Hyeok-kyu, Johan Lepennant – Matthis Abline, Youssef El Arabi, Herba Guirassy.
