Four days after the defeat in Marseille, OL want to recover with the Coupe de France. The starting lineup should be essentially the same against Lens as against OM.
A rebound is expected this Thursday evening (9:10 p.m.) in Décines. After two defeats in the league,OL receives the RC Lens for the last quarter-final of the Coupe de France. With the elimination ofABOUT Wednesday evening, the field still remains made up of elite clubs, but there is a door to open for the Lyonnais. This would bring relief to the heart after the two setbacks in Ligue 1, even if Nicolas Tagliafico and Paul Fonseca assure that this has not changed anything in the locker room. We can certainly believe them because they had said for a long time that we should not get excited about victories. However, nothing will replace a response on the pitch at Parc OL.
Tessmann on the bench after his match in Marseille?
To confront Pierre SageFonseca still cannot count on a strong workforce. However, he should count on the pride of his players to provide a response to this bad patch. The Lyon coach assures that Marseille was“a defeat that gives confidence” and it shouldn’t upset. He does not necessarily have the human resources and the eleven should be closer to the one who started at the Vélodrome. With one or two exceptions.
More than in the tough last Sunday, Tanner Tessmann should pay the price for his failed performance with Abnerproviding a more technical profile, as advanced by The Team. The other concerns the goalkeeper position, as written a little earlier. Who’s Remy Descamps or Dominic Greif will be the holder? Fonseca preferred to maintain the suspense, the two goalkeepers having qualities to showcase.
The likely composition of the OL: Descamps – Maitland-Niles, Mata, Niakhate, Tagliafico – Nartey, Morton, Abner – Tolisso – Endrick, Yaremchuk
