Nice predicted line-up v Brest: Andy Delort returns to Les Aiglons’ squad | OneFootball

Following a draw against FC Köln in the Europa Conference league (2-2) which confirmed their progression to the next stage of the competition, OGC Nice are hoping to continue their good form in Ligue 1 following a win against FC Lorient (1-2) last weekend.

Andy Delort is set to return to Nice’s squad for their home match against Brest according to L’Équipe, after being sidelined since the 16th October due to a sprained knee injury against Auxerre after scoring a goal in a 1-1 draw. With 6 goals this season in all competitions, Delort is the top scorer for Les Aiglons.

In terms of Nice’s potential line-up, it looks like Billal Brahimi will keep the shirt after some promising performances of late for Les Aiglons – as starts for Nicolas Pépé and Gaetan Laborde look likely (especially considering the latter’s new-found goalscoring touch). Ross Barkely could be set for a place on the bench. Meanwhile, Brest will be without Islam Slimani for the the Breton’s trip to the Côte d’Azur side.
