“We must always remain cautious. We are confident, two goals ahead is good, but we know that everything will be called into question from the kick-off in Prague. Nothing is decided, we will have a second very tough fight to play in front of their fans.”
Bruno Genesio has been around too long not to alert his troops to the trap of a return match, after the victory against Slavia Prague in the first leg a week ago (2-0).
Lille
will indeed have to finish the job to validate its place in the Champions League, on the eve of the draw for the new format of the competition. A challenge within the ropes of LOSC, which will however have to deal with many absences for this second round, from Angel Gomes to Aïssa Mandi, via Samuel Umtiti, Nabil Bentaleb, Akim Zedadka and Ismaily. The scene is set.

Slavia Prague : Kinsky – Holes, Ogbu, Zima – Masopust, Dorley, Zafeiris Diouf – Schranz, Chory, Provod.
Lille : Chevalier – Meunier, Diakité, Alexsandro – Thiago Santos, Haraldsson, André, Gudmunsson – Zhegrova, David, Cabella.
