With nothing at stake for either of these sides, this doesn't have the look of an instant classic, but both teams have goals in them and their youngsters and squad players could look to impress. Lyon could well feel the pressure of their home fans, making this an uncomfortable encounter for Peter Bosz and his side. 1:1
Maxence Caqueret is in the squad but the youngster is unlikely to start. Thiago Mendes' season is over after being hit with a two-match ban. Fit-again Damien Da Silva should partner Castello Lukeba in central defence.

Antoine Kombouare has confimed Pedro Chrivella's groin injury has ended his season. Nantes could rotate as well after their midweek win against Rennes -- Willem Guebbels and Sebastien Corchia are among those who could feature.
