Sochaux coach Eric Hely has opted to try to pack the midfield for Saturday night's home clash against Brest.

He has named just Cedric Bakambu as a striker, with support likely to come from Ryad Boudebouz and Sebastien Roudet.

For the visiting Brest, just a point above their hosts in 17th, it is two up top with Jonathan Ayite partnering Eden Ben Basat.

Sochaux: Pouplin; Corchia, Roussillon, Peybernes, Sauget; Poujol, Boudebouz, Camara, Roudet, Nogueira; Bakambu

Brest: Thebaux; Martial, Mendy, Baysse, Kantari; Grougi, Lesoimier, Chafni, Sissoko; Ayite, Ben Basat
