Lorient host Paris in Ligue 1, with the home side having just lost 1-2 in their last match, while Paris won 2-1 away with the game under control. The two teams therefore come into this in clearly different states. Lorient still cannot find a win in their last two matches, and their defence has problems early in the second half, while their attack relies mainly on counter-attacking moments. According to the expected line-up, Ibrahima Balde is likely to be the lone striker in a 3-4-2-1 that focuses on packing the middle first. As for Paris, they are unbeaten in their last five league matches and have attacking quality that scores consistently, with Lassine Sinayoko expected to be the lone striker in a 4-2-3-1 that tries to push the game high up the pitch. If Lorient set up in a tight defensive block and can find counter-attacking moments first, the game should turn into an exchange of blows that is not too far apart, and it could end in a draw or the home side edging it in the end.
