The FCSB and Olympique Lyonnais compete this Thursday in the round of 16 go to the Europa League (6.45 p.m.). Here is the expected composition for OL.

After fueling the news in spite of himself following his violent blood blow, Paulo Fonseca finds the green rectangle for a very important meeting in the Europa League against the FCSB, which is none other than the Steaua Bucharest, the most titled team in Romania.

And the Portuguese technician will obviously be scrutinized for his choices. After a precious victory against Stade Brestois last Sunday (2-1), several options are possible for OL. The first would be to make a wide rotation compared to the chain of matches. But the trend would be in the second, with an eleven starting close to the typical team.

Lacazette on the bench?

An interrogation remains in attack: who of Lacazette or Mikautadze will be aligned? The two scorers have a very strong technical relationship with Rayan Cherki. The Georgian would start with a step ahead to occupy this position of advanced attacker.

Cherki is also expected in this offensive animation, while Fofana could bring its percussion capacity to the side. Tolisso, in great shape, should continue. Other executives are expected to start this match, like Matic below in the middle and the inevitable Perri in the goals.

The expected composition for Lyon : Perri-Maitland-Niles, Mata, Niakhaté, Tagliafico-Tessmann, Matic-Cherki, Tolisso (C), Nuamah-Mikautadze.
