Olympique Lyonnais welcomes Toulouse this Sunday for the 15th day of Ligue 1 (5:05 p.m.). Here is the expected line-up for the Rhone club.
At the heart of a hellish schedule until the break, it’s a spot that looks like a turning point for the future. Red lantern of the championship, Olympique Lyonnais no longer has a choice. The Rhone club must absolutely win against Toulouse to reduce the gap that separates it from its competitors.
“The maintenance of the team will be decided over twenty matches and that of Marseille is behind us. The important thing is to give all our energy for the following match, against Toulouse. We hope that the public will be behind us. In any case, we’re waiting for that. We will try to ensure, on the ground, that he sticks to this project. Now, it’s up to us to convince him,” launched Pierre Sage.
It remains to be seen which men the OL interim coach will base his starting lineup on. In the current context, and despite the non-match in Marseille, it seems difficult to imagine Pierre Sage cutting heads. “Above all, I feel disappointment and it is also my role to purge this feeling. We are not impervious to all these feelings, to all these negative emotions. Obviously, we are going to replay the film, we are going to look in the rearview mirror and the solutions are not there. The idea is to always focus on what happens next. »
Despite his poor performance in Marseille, Cherki should continue, just like Lacazette.
The expected line-up for OL : Lopes – Mata, Lovren, O’Brien, Tagliafico – Caqueret, Tolisso – Nuamah, Cherki, Moreira – Lacazette (c).
