Lille predicted XI v Auxerre: Matias Fernandez-Pardo and Edon Zhegrova out | OneFootball

Bruno Genesio’s options on the wing are limited as Lille OSC travel to the Stade de l’Abbé-Deschamps to take on AJ Auxerre on Friday night.

Matias Fernandez-Pardo suffered a torn ligament during a 1-1 draw against FC Nantes last weekend. No timescale has been provided for his return but what is certain is that he will miss the trip to Auxerre. The same goes for Edon Zhegrova, a guaranteed starter on the opposite wing. It means that Genesio is lacking in options in the wing positions. Rémy Cabella is expected to start on the left and Mitchel Bakker, a defender by trade, on the right.

Tiago Santos, Samuel Umtiti, Nabil Bentaleb and Ethan Mbappé are all also absent for Les Dogues. Angel Gomes has made his return, however, he is not expected to start for Lille this evening.
