Team News: Nicolas Maurice-Belay, Jussie up front for Bordeaux

Bordeaux head coach Francis Gillot has selected a two-man attack of Nicolas Maurice-Belay and Jussie for the away trip to Nantes as his side look to move back into Europa League contention.

As well as his front two, Gillot has chosen Henri Saivet on the flank to provide more attacking threat in what is a positive lineup from the Frenchman.

Nantes could take another step towards safety with a win, and manager Michel Der Zakarian has chosen Serge Gakpe and former Swansea City loanee Itay Shechter to lead his attack.

Nantes: Dupe; Djidji, Vizcarrondo, Cissokho, Veigneau; Deaux, Bedoya, Nicolita, Gomis; Gakpe, Shechter

Bordeaux: Carrasso; Mariano, Henrique, Sane, Orban; Poko, Sertic, Hoarau, Saivet; Maurice-Belay, Jussie
