LOSC is in Montpellier this Sunday to fight for the top spot in the French championship. Here are the probable line-ups for this thirteenth round of Ligue 1.
The thirteenth day of Ligue 1 McDonald's continues this Sunday with the trip of the Dogues (4th, 22 pts) to Hérault, Montpellier. The MHSC (18th, 7 pts), led by Jean-Louis Gasset since the ousting of Michel Der Zakarian, is none other than the bottom of the championship and is already fighting for its survival in the elite. This duel, scheduled for this Sunday, December 1 at 3 p.m., promises to be tricky for LOSC, often generous when it comes to reviving an opponent in difficulty.
As we approach the start of the match, we offer you the probable line-ups of the two teams. That of LOSC was concocted by us, while the starting lineup of Montpellier HSC was created by the newspaper The Team.
LOSC
The 4-2-3-1 is today immovable at LOSC, which could continue an unbeaten streak of twelve games in Hérault. For this, Bruno Genesio should field a similar defense (Meunier, Diakité, Alexsandro) to that of Bologna, with the exception of Gabriel Gudmundsson. The Swede continues and could take advantage of this trip to breathe for the benefit of Mitchell Bakker. In the midfield,
Benjamin Andrew should obviously take on his role as captain, accompanied by Ngal'ayel Mukaususpended last weekend. Finally, Remy Cabella
should find his position behind the attacker, Jonathan
Davidaccompanied by Matias Fernandez-Pardo et Osame Sahraoui.
The probable composition of LOSC: Chevalier – Meunier, Diakité, Alexsandro, Bakker – André, Mukau – Fernandez-Pardo, Cabella, Sahraoui – David
Montpellier HSC
On the other hand, on the Montpellier side, Jean-Louis Gasset will have to deal with eight absences, but with Teji Savanierwhich was uncertain until now. The latter is also expected to play a starting role at the heart of a three-way midfielder made up of Jordan Ferri et Joris Chautard. A notch higher, the Montpellier attack should be an experienced trident with Arnaud
Nordin, Wahbi Khazri et Musa Al-Tamari. Finally, the MHSC relies on its autumn recruit in central defense: Nikola
Maksimović. The Serb would be accompanied by
Enzo Tchato,
Modibo Sagnan et Issiaga
