Olympique Lyonnais is set to face SCO Angers on Friday evening, and the team will contend with the absence of several pivotal players in their upcoming home fixture.
Midfielder Tyler Morton is notably unavailable due to a suspension. The former Liverpool player received a contentious red card last week during the match against Stade Rennais, resulting in a two-game ban, with one game being deferred. Goalkeeper Rémy Deschamps is also sidelined after sustaining an injury during Rennes` equalizing goal. Consequently, Dominik Greif, a summer acquisition from Mallorca, is expected to make his debut between the posts.
Furthermore, Martín Satriano, who arrived on loan from RC Lens, is anticipated to make his first appearance for the club. His return to full fitness will enable OL captain Corentin Tolisso to move into a deeper midfield pivot role, effectively filling the void left by the suspended Morton.
Projected Starting XI for Lyon vs. Angers
- Goalkeeper: Dominik Greif
- Defenders: Nicolás Tagliafico, Moussa Niakhaté, Clinton Mata, Ainsley Maitland-Niles
- Midfielders: Corentin Tolisso, Tanner Tessmann
- Attackers: Malick Fofana, Khalis Merah, Adam Karabec, Martín Satriano
