Probable Lineups for LOSC vs Angers SCO

LOSC Lille

The home team is expected to minimize changes from their recent lineup. With a focus on stability, the formation likely remains a 4-2-3-1. Here’s the probable lineup:

  • Goalkeeper: Berke Özer
  • Defenders: Thomas Meunier, Chancel Mbemba, Aïssa Mandi, Romain Perraud
  • Midfielders: Benjamin André, Ayyoub Bouaddi
  • Forwards: Félix Correia, Hakon Haraldsson, Matias Fernandez-Pardo, Olivier Giroud

Notable absences include Marc-Aurèle Caillard, Ousmane Touré, Alexsandro, Ethan Mbappé, and Nathan Ngoy due to injuries. Marius Broholm and André Gomes also miss out for unclear reasons.

Angers SCO

Under the guidance of Alexandre Dujeux, Angers aims to make a statement in Lille. Known for their resilient performances against top teams, they recently held AS Monaco and Olympique de Marseille to draws. However, a heavy defeat against Strasbourg (5-0) serves as a stark reminder of their inconsistencies.

Angers is also expected to deploy a 4-2-3-1 formation. The probable lineup includes:

  • Goalkeeper: Koffi
  • Defenders: Arcus, Camara, Lefort, Ekomié
  • Midfielders: Belkebla, Abdelli
