We said: Nantes 0-0 Lorient

With a big European match upcoming, we expect Kombouare will want to give his starters a little playing time but not much so as not to risk an injury. Therefore, we expect La Maison Jaune to be pragmatic in their approach this weekend and hang back defensively, while containing the Lorient attack should not be a problem for them as Les Merlus have not shown much quality in front of goal lately.
