In the opening match of the 35th day of Ligue 1, FC Nantes hosts Olympique de Marseille at the Beaujoire stadium this Friday. This encounter marks Papy Djilobodji’s return to competition after being sidelined due to a rib injury sustained a month and a half ago.
The Senegalese central defender is set to make his comeback in the Ligue 1 pitches and is likely to feature against OM. Additionally, another Senegalese player for Nantes, right-back Issa Cissokho, has completed his suspension and is available for selection.
Nantes coach Michel Der Zakarian will have his “Lion of Teranga” at his disposal for the clash against Olympique de Marseille. However, the Yellow House will be without Johan Audel, as the Martinique striker is sidelined due to a thigh injury sustained in the previous match against Valenciennes (6-2).
The Nantes squad against Marseille includes Riou, Dupé, Alhadhur, Cissokho, Djidji, Djilobodji, Veigneau, Vizcarrondo, Bedoya, Bessat, Deaux, Gomis, B. Touré, Veretout, Aristeguieta, Gakpe, Nicolita, and Pancrate.
