Team News

Nancy
  • Bottom club Nancy have a number of injury concerns going into this weekend's clash.
  • Fouad Rachid is out with a leg injury, while Abdou Dampha has a calf problem.
  • Massadio Haidara has a groin injury, and Ziri Hammar is expected to miss out with an ankle complaint.
  • Yohan Mollo is a doubt with a knee injury and manager Jean Fernandez will need to make changes to his midfield if Mollo does not return to fitness in time.
Ajaccio
  • Ajaccio have very few injury concerns ahead of the visit of Sochaux.
  • Felipe Saad is a doubt with a hamstring problem, but Johan Cavalli returns from a four match suspension.

Prediction

  • Nancy will be looking for their first victory in 12 games as they take on Ajaccio at the Stade Marcel Picot.
  • Les Chardons appeared set for a morale-boosting victory at Troyes, however they were left to settle for a point after surrendering a 3-1 lead in the closing minutes.
  • That result ensured that Jean Fernandez's men remained at the foot of the Ligue 1 table, but they will be hopeful of going one better against an Ajaccio side that has performed better than expected away from home this term.
  • Still the Corsicans sit just two points clear of the drop zone and after falling to a disappointing defeat to Sochaux last time out, manager Alex Dupont will be eager for his side to secure victory and move away from danger.
  • Expect a cagey encounter that should be short on chances, both sides will be desperate not to lose, and therefore a stalemate may well be likely.
