Lorient predicted XI v OGC Nice: Pablo Pagis on the bench?
As expected, FC Lorient are expected to name a strong side when they welcome OGC Nice in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France, however, L’Équipe understands that star playmaker Pablo Pagis may not start Wednesday night’s encounter at the Moustoir.
Pagis may start the game from the bench, as may Noah Cadiou, an imposing midfielder who has excelled for Olivier Pantaloni’s side in recent weeks. In Pagis’ place, it may be Dermane Karim who gets the nod, whilst in midfield, it may be Arthur Avom Ebong who starts alongside club captain Laurent Abergel.
There are also absences for Lorient to contend with. Igor Silva misses out on this game due to injury, whilst Isaak Touré is not yet ready to make his return to action.
