Ligue 1 2024-2025: Nantes-Lyon, the likely lineups.

Teams on the field at 5:15 p.m.

Nantes and Lyon will face each other on the 19th day of Ligue 1 2024-25, in a showdown between two teams that are not going through a particularly brilliant period.

The yellow-green eleven, fresh off three consecutive draws, is struggling to find continuity in the league and currently shares the third-last position in the standings with Saint-Etienne. The lack of victories for more than a month further complicates the situation of Kombouaré’s team, which absolutely must get back to winning the three points to lift itself up.

Speaking of Lyon, the recent draw against Toulouse that slowed its race toward European positions, causing it to slip out of the top five. However, the Champions zone remains within reach, with a gap of only two points keeping hopes of climbing back up alive.

On the injury front, the news is not encouraging: Warmed Omari, Wilfried Zaha and Paul Akouokou remain unavailable.
