Lyon will be hoping to keep in the hunt for European football, after an impressive comeback victory against Brest last time out, as they face perhaps the toughest task in France and travel to the Parc des Princes to face PSG on Sunday evening.

 

L’Équipe report that Pierre Sage is set to make three changes to his team who completed a valiant comeback to beat Brest 4-3 in their last match. One of these changes is forced as Nicolás Tagliafico is suspended for the match after receiving a red card against Les Pirates. As a result, Henrqiue is set to deputise for the World Cup winner.

 

Another change in defence is expected with Duje Ćaleta-Car set to start at centre back replacing makeshift centre back Clinton Mata. The Lyon midfield is set to be unchanged. Sage’s final change should be in attack with Ernest Nuamah set to return and replace Malick Fofana. Lacazette is set to be fit to start despite being forced off with a potential injury against Brest.

Lyon likely XI vs PSG:

Anthony Lopes – Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Duje Ćaleta-Car, Jake O’Brien, Henrique – Nemanja Matić, Maxence Caqueret, Corentin Tolisso – Ernest Nuamah, Alexandre Lacazette, Saïd Benrahma.
