Lyon predicted XI v Toulouse: Saïd Benrahma and Orel Mangala out
Olympique Lyonnais will be without Saïd Benrahma and Orel Mangala as they travel to face Toulouse FC on Friday evening.
Benrahma suffered a thigh injury against FC Lorient last weekend and he was touch-and-go for Friday’s encounter against Le TéFéCé. It had been hoped that the Algerian winger would be fit, however, he will miss out, as does fellow January signing Mangala.
In better news for Lyon, Alexandre Lacazette will make his return to Pierre Sage’s squad. The OL captain has missed the last two matches but is expected to lead the line in place of Gift Orban, who is expected to drop to the bench. As has been the case in recent weeks, Rayan Cherki will have to settle for a place on the bench.
Anthony Lopes; Nicolas Tagliafico, Duje Caleta-Car, Jake O’Brien, Ainsley Maitland-Niles; Nemanja Matić; Malick Fofana, Corentin Tolisso, Maxence Caqueret, Ernest Nuamah; Alexandre Lacazette. (L’Éq)
