Sixteenth in this League phase with 7 points, Lille
will try to get closer to the top of the table this Wednesday evening. A success in Bologna would confirm the rise of the northern club after its good performances against the big names on its calendar.
But with which starting eleven? While he has often had to deal with major absences, Bruno Genesio has seen the infirmary empty in recent weeks. Uncertain, Edon Zhegrova will be in the Lille group. “ Edon traveled with us, he will be there tomorrow. Angel is out and will be until the winter break. No other injuries, with the return of Ngala Mukau, suspended during the last match“, explained the technician.
A dilemma for Zhegrova
“It is very important to recover players, because I have a lot of choices to change from one match to another. It is very important to have a replenished squad. This end of the year will be a difficult period with a lot of matches. Tomorrow will be the 20th, it will be important to have fresh players”Genesio continued.
The question therefore concerns the potential tenure of Zhegrova. For the rest, there will be fewer surprises and LOSC should rely on its strengths, from Jonathan David at the forefront of the attack to captain Benjamin André in the midfield, without forgetting the impressive Lucas Chevalier in the goals.
The expected line-up for Lille : Chevalier – Gudmundsson, Diakite, Alexsandro, Mandi – André, Mukau – Sarahoui, Angel Gomes, Zhegrova – David.
