Lyon predicted XI v Lille: Rayan Cherki and Ainsley Maitland-Niles to start on the bench
Pierre Sage is blessed with choice as his Olympique Lyonnais side make the trip up north to face UEFA Champions League chasers Lille OSC.
Both sides will be seeking to further their respective objectives. Whilst Lille could overtake Stade Brestois and take a place on the podium, Lyon could rise to seventh in Ligue 1, which would be enough to earn them European football for next season. For the encounter, Sage does not have any injuries to contend with, although he does have plenty of decisions to make.
L’Équipe understands that Rayan Cherki, Ainsley Maitland-Nilesl, Orel Mangala, Gift Orban and Malick Fofana are amongst the players expected to have to settle for a place on the bench at the Stade Pierre Mauroy.
