Lille OSC are close to full strength as they head down to the South of France to face OGC Nice on Sunday afternoon. Tanguy Nianzou, who continues to grapple with fitness issues, and Hamza Igamane, who is still working his way back from an ACL injury sustained back in February, are the only absentees for Davide Ancelotti to contend with.
The Italian has decisions to make against Le Gym. Notably, he must decide who will lead the line at the Allianz Riviera. LÉquipe understands that it is Ayase Ueda who will get the nod over veteran forward Olivier Giroud. The former France international turns 40 later this month. Ancelotti has so far chopped and changed on the left of his attack, but Basar Onal is expected to start today.
