Nice – Lille Preview: Latest Form, News, and Potential Lineups

Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for this duel, including our predicted Nice vs Lille lineups.

Nice

Nice had an awful start to last season and despite improved displays and results in the spring, the Eagles never properly recovered. Nice ended up finishing only 9th with their only consolation being that for the final 10 rounds of the campaign, they were a top-6 side in the power rankings. 

It has been a summer of changes for Nice after that. They appointed a new manager, the Italian Farioli is an unproven specialist outside the Turkish Super Lig. Nice also released 4 underperforming players and replaced them with 3 new signings. 

Influential playmaker Khephren Thuram might not play as he is linked with a move away. Also, defender Ndayishimiye nurses a knee injury and seems set to miss. In Dante an experienced cover option is available. 

Predicted Lineup: 

Schmeichel (GK), Lotomba, Dante, Amraoui, Beka Beka, Rosario, Belahyane, Diop, Bouanani, Guessand & Moffi

Lille

Lille finished last season only 5th but still 9 points above Nice. Les Dogues played very well at home and David’s goals brought them lots of home wins. They struggled on their travels though. Collected just 3 points from their last 5 away league games last season. 

Lille conceded lots of cheap goals last season and they tried to address that on the transfer market. Experienced defenders Umtiti and Santos have joined the ranks. The latter is set to become the new main right-back. 

For this first game, the options in the wide attacking areas are limited as both Zhegrova and Djalo are set to be absent due to injuries. 

Predicted Lineup: 

Chevalier GK), Santos, Diakite, Yoro, Ismaily, Andre, Baleba, Haraldsson, Cabella, Ounas & David
