Nice predicted XI: Hicham Boudaoui to replace Pablo Rosario with Khéphren Thuram ruled out | OneFootball

Francesco Farioli isn’t expected to tinker too much with his starting XI when OGC Nice face Le Havre AC on Saturday. Hicham Boudaoui could, however, replace Pablo Rosario, who started in Les Aiglons’ 2-1 win over Stade de Reims last weekend.

Farioli doesn’t have any fresh injury concerns to contend with. Sofiane Diop, Badredine Bouanani and Khéphren Thuram were all absent from last weekend’s win over Reims. The latter underwent tests on a knee injury, sustained in training, this week. Those tests have allayed the worst fears, but the France international midfielder will nonetheless be out until early 2024.

Nice’s side has been settled for much of the season, and understandably so given the results. However, Gaëtan Laborde has been switched over with Terem Moffi in recent weeks, and it is once again the former that is expected to be played through the middle. Moffi will likely play on the right.

Nice likely lineup v Le Havre

Marcin Bulka; Melvin Bard, Dante, Jean-Clair Todibo, Jordan Lotomba; Morgan Sanson, Youssouf Ndayishimiye, Badredine Bouanani; Jérémie Boga, Gaëtan Laborde, Terem Moffi.
