Lille predicted XI v Crvena Zvezda: Gaetan Perrin to start | OneFootball

Whilst Bruno Genesio announced yesterday that Gaetan Perrin is not fit enough to play a whole 90 minutes, the former AJ Auxerre forward may start for Lille OSC when they face Crvena Zvezda in the first leg of their UEFA Europa League playoff on Thursday night. 

Lille are contending with plenty of absentees. Alexsandro is not fit enough to participate, whilst Thomas Meunier, Ethan Mbappé, Hamza Igamane, and Isame Sahraoui are all also out with injuries. Speaking pre-match, Genesio revealed that André Gomes wouldn’t be involved either. The former Everton and Barcelona midfielder is nearing a departure from the club; it is thought that he is set for a move to the MLS. Marius Broholm, meanwhile, is ineligible. Noah Edjouma returns from a short period of injury-related absence.
