Strasbourg predicted XI v OGC Nice: Habib Diarra and Emanuel Emegha out, Caleb Wiley to start | OneFootball

Liam Rosenior has multiple key absentees as RC Strasbourg Alsace head to face OGC Nice at the Allianz Riviera on Sunday evening.

Habib Diarra, a guaranteed starter, will miss the game with a suspension, which could see Diego Moreria deployed in a more familiar attacking position with Chelsea loanee Caleb Wiley then coming back in at wing-back. Former Southampton striker Sékou Mara is almost certain to lead the line with Emanuel Emegha still recovering from an injury, whilst the same goes for Moïse Sahi Dion.

Mamadou Sarr, who joined Strasbourg from Olympique Lyonnais in the summer, may get the nod ahead of Abakar Sylla. No surprises are expected in the midfield with Ismaël Doukouré set to partner Chelsea loanee Andrey Santos.
