Montpellier defender Kiki Kouyaté is out of the match against Lorient. The Malian international was injured in the 60th minute against Le Havre.

He suffered a head impact during the match (1-1) in Marseille last season. This is the second concussion in less than a year for the 26-year-old. He must observe a week of rest before resuming collective training next week in preparation for the trip to Clermont, another direct competitor in the race to remain in Ligue 1.
