A week after defeat in Olympico against Marseille (2-3), Lyon
will try to relaunch this Sunday. The Paulo Fonseca team is opposed to the Reims stadium, in a match that could allow Gones to win a first success under the tutelage of the Portuguese.
But the latter will have to do without a strong link in his group since Alexandre Lacazette is injured and finally forfeit for this match. The Lyon striker is replaced on the front of the attack by Georges Mikautadze.
Cherki will chain
For the rest, OL presents itself with an eleven rather classic eleven articulated in 4-2-3-1. Behind Mikautadze, Cherki is present, in the same way as the captain of the day Tolisso, and that Nuamah. The Tessman-Matic tandem is aligned below in the midfield.
In defense, the Mata-Niakhaté central hinge will be supported on the sides by Kumbedi and Tagliafico. The irremovable Perri holds its place in the goals.
The Lyon Composition : Perri – Kumbedi, Mata, Niakhaté, Tagliafico – Tessmann, Matic – Cherki, Tolisso (C), Nuamah – Mikautadze.
