Nice predicted XI v Reims: Youssouf Ndayishimiye, Valentin Rosier and Sofiane Diop absent | OneFootball

With just one win in their last eight in Ligue 1, OGC Nice are desperately in need of a win against Stade de Reims on Sunday to bolster their European chances, however, Francesco Farioli won’t have a full squad at his disposal to do so.

Some players are returning for Nice, however, there are still significant absences. Morgan Sanson is back in the squad, however, it is unlikely that he will be fit enough to start the match, whilst elsewhere in midfield, Youssouf Ndayishimiye remains absent. Pablo Rosario is expected to take his place in the No.6 role

Valentin Rosier is also out, as is Sofiane Diop, who underwent surgery on his foot injury earlier this week. The Moroccan international will not feature again this season, as Farioli revealed.

Nice likely lineup v Reims:

Marcin Bulka; Melvin Bard, Dante, Jean-Clair Todibo, Jordan Lotomba; Khéphren Thuram, Pablo Rosario, Hicham Boudaoui; Gaetan Laborde, Terem Moffi, Mohamed-Ali Cho.
