Team News

Lille
Lens
  • Angel Gomes is expected to miss up to two weeks with a hamstring injury.
  • Bafodé Diakité is now fully fit and should be first choice at right back.
  • With Gomes unavailable, look for Rémy Cabella to move centrally, allowing one of Gabriel Gudmundsson or Haakon Haraldson to start on the left flank.
  • Defender Abdukodir Khusanov misses out here for an accumulation of bookings.
  • Jonathan Gradit is expected to miss out here -- look for fit-again Massadio Haïdara to take his place in defence.
  • Save the absence of Gradit, Franck Haise should field his by-now familiar first-choice eleven.

Prediction

  • There's no love lost between these sides in this derby encounter -- expect this game to kick off Matchday 27 with a bang.
  • Lens won't be shy about coming out all guns blazing knowing that a win would see them leapfrog their hosts -- this looks set to be a full-blooded affair.
