Sadio Diallo and Lamine Koné will be absent from the upcoming Breton derby between Rennes and Lorient. As Lorient travels to Rennes for the 35th day of Ligue 1, Christian Gourcuff is placing his hopes on Vincent Aboubakar, the Cameroonian striker, to make a significant impact. However, Lorient will have to cope without the services of Diallo and Koné, who sustained injuries during the last training session. Diallo is dealing with a strained quadriceps, while Koné is experiencing pubic pain.
The Lorient squad for the derby includes: Goalkeepers: Audard, Chaigneau Defenders: Pedrinho, Ecuele Manga, Guerreiro, Baca, Lautoa, Gassama Midfielders: Bourillon, Coutadeur, Abdullah, Sunu, Pelé, Monnet-Paquet, Doukouré Forwards: Aboubakar, Aliadière, Traoré
