- After the 4-0 defeat to Montpellier it won’t be a surprise to see Christian Gourcuff make a couple of changes.
- Lamine Kone has recovered from injury and could return to partner Ecuele-Manga in defence.
- Innocent Emeghara will fight with Joel Campbell to partner Gilles Sunu upfront.
- Gourcuff is still without Jeremie Aliadiere, Gregory Bourillon, Sebastian Dubarbier, Sigi Diarra, and Julien Quercia all through injury.
- Lyon’s only injury doubt is Dejan Lovren, after the defender dropped out at the last moment against Toulouse and missed the Champions League game against Dinamo Zagreb.
- Ederson and Michel Bastos are likely to start and Yoann Gourcuff could find himself on the bench again.
- Lisandro Lopez should start upfront in place of Bafetimbi Gomis, although the Frenchman’s four goals against Zagreb will give him a chance of starting.
