Venue- Parc Olympique Lyonnais
Lyon
Youssouf Kone has returned to fitness as being on the sidelines for quite a while due to injury but could be given further rest here. Marcal has returned after a match ban and should be back at the left-back position. Joachim Andersen has had some underwhelming performances in the recent games and could make way for Kenny Tete to come in place of Dane at the back three. Lucas Tousart and Houssem Aouar are likely to feature in midfield.
Stade Reims
Ghislain Konan was sent of against Brest in the previous league fixture which gets him ruled out against Lyon. Axe Disai is in doubt to start, while Dario Maresix will be expected to feature alongside Yunis Abdelhamid in defence. Boulaye Dia and Xavier Chavalerin are also in doubts to start for the away side as they recover from injury in spite of being back in training.
