Team News
Lille
Saint-Etienne
- Mounir Obbadi, Yves Bissouma and Naim Sliti are the high-profile names to travel to Africa Cup of Nations this month.
- Yassine Benzia has a knock, but should be fit to start up top as a second striker for the hosts, and Rony Lopes could continue despite injury.
- The back four should remain unchanged with no fresh injury concerns nor departing players heading to Gabon for international duty.
- Robert Beric is sidelined with an injury, which should see Alexander Soderlund lead the line for the visitors.
- Leo Lacroix is serving a suspension for an accumulation of bookings, which should see Benjamin Karamoko feature at the heart of the defence.
- Ole Selnaes has a knock, which should see Vincent Pajot come into a midfield three for Saint-Etienne. Anthony Maisonnial continues in goal.
Saint etienne away form has been alright, however 2 of their recent away wins have been against 2 of the bottom 3 teams with the worst away record in the league, have Lille got injuries they didn't have in their last match?
This is bad, really bad. For Lille: Yeboah plays for Twente. Civelli has left the team to go to Argentina. De Preville is back; he is in the squad but may not start. Beria has been preferred to Palmieri at left back, even before getting into a physical altercation with Collot after Lille's cup match. For Sainté: M'Bengué is at AFCON Karamoko, Soderlund and Pajot aren't in the 18
@erictalkssoccer Karamoko has even left the club (on loan to a 2nd division). Lacroix is no longer suspended, but out due to injury. Moulin will be the GK, not Maisonnial (as stated by the coach). Yes, really bad preview.
