It is with a group still a little diminished that theOGC Nice will face AJ Auxerre this Friday evening, raising curtain of the 26th day of Ligue 1 (kick -off at 8:45 p.m.). The Aiglons must do not do without several frames, like Tanguy Ndombele or Morgan Sanson, both on the way back.

“Tanguy (Ndombele) is resuming with the preparers, on the ground. We will see if, during the truce period, we collect it on the (work) collective, explained Franck Haise. Apart from him, everyone is present. Morgan (Sanson) will play Thursday with the elite group. In his recovery process, after 7 months of absence, it is important that he starts again with playing time. There is an interesting match to play against the Brentford U23. He will have, I think, an hour of play ”.

Clauss suspended for Nice-Auxerre

Another absent from the Nice side: Jonathan Clauss. In great shape currently, the French international is suspended due to an accumulation of yellow cards. The former Marseillais should be replaced in this role of right piston by the young Tom Laghet, while Melvin Bard will occupy the left flank.

Other strong links are expected at the start of this match, such as the Guessand-Laborde-Cho trio in attack, Boudaoui and Santamaria in the midfield, Captain Dante as a boss of the defense three and Bulka in the Nice goals. “” I have 2, 3 or 4 players who are not far from the 11th. The dynamics of sessions, games and results, is rather positive, but our margin is not huge. We have no choice but to be very demanding “Added Franck Haise.

The expected composition for Nice : Bulka – Ndayishimiye, Bomboito, Dante – Lack, Santamaria, Boudaoui, Bard – Guessand, Laborde, Cho.
