On loan Arsenal striker Joel Campbell has been named on the bench for Lorient for the visit of Ligue 1 leaders Montpellier.
Campbell's omission means that Kevin Monnet-Paquet will be partnered by Jeremie Aliadiere in attack.
Top goalscorer Olivier Giroud starts in attack for Montpellier in a side which includes former Portsmouth player John Utaka.
Lorient: Fabien Audard, Wesley Lautoa, Gregory Bourillon, Arnaud Le Lan, Maxine Baca, Mathieu Coutadeur, Arnold Mvuemba, Mathias Autret, Yann Jouffre, Kevin Monnet-Paquet, Jeremie Aliadiere
