Paris FC travel to face Lorient on Saturday 10th October (20:45 kick-off) for matchday 6 of Ligue 1, riding a wave of positive momentum. The Parisian club, sitting third in the table with 11 points, is unbeaten in their last five matches.
Confidence is high following their last home win against Strasbourg (2-1). Lassine Sinayoko, who provided an assist in that victory, is the team's top scorer this season with four goals. The starting lineup is likely to be similar to last week's, featuring Kevin Trapp in goal and a central defensive pairing of Moussa Mbow and Danilo Coppola.
Today's opponents, FC Lorient, are in 12th place and are coming off a loss away to Le Mans (1-2). Les Merlus will likely deploy their 3-4-2-1 system, with Yvon Mvogo in goal. This trip to the Stade du Moustoir is a test for Paris FC to confirm their good form, particularly defensively having conceded only three goals in five matches.
