OL-Lorient: Grosso’s surprise eleven

Fabio Grosso, the coach of Olympique Lyonnais, has decided on strong choices for the reception of Lorient this Sunday.

OL perhaps need an electric shock to get out of eighteenth and last place in the Ligue 1 standings. A victory this Sunday at home against Lorient would obviously be welcome.

For the reception of the Merlus, match counting for the 8th day (kick-off at 3 p.m.), coach Fabio Grosso chose notable changes in midfield.

Corentin Tolisso and Rayan Cherki, usual starters, find themselves on the substitutes’ bench.

Central defender Dejan Lovren, returning from injury, will start, like young Brazilian midfielder Jeffinho.
