Lille will be hoping to keep their Stade de France dreams alive as they travel to face 4th-division opposition Racing Club de France Football in the Coupe de France on Sunday afternoon.
L’Équipe report that Paulo Fonseca is set to make minimal changes from his Les Dogues side that comprehensively beat Lorient 3-0 in Ligue 1 last time out. The French publication report that the Portuguese manager is only set to make two changes for the cup tie.
One of these changes is expected in goal with starting stopper Lucas Chevalier set to be rotated with Vito Mannone given an opportunity between the sticks. The other change is set to take place in midfield. 16-year-old Ayyoub Bouaddi is expected to make his first senior start for his boyhood club, replacing Angel Gomes in the middle of the park. A familiar partnership is expected up front with Jonathan David lining up alongside Yusuf Yazıcı.
Vito Mannone – Tiago Santos, Leny Yoro, Alexsandro, Ismaily – Edon Zhegrova, Benjamin André, Ayyoub Bouaddi, Gabriel Gudmundsson – Jonathan David, Yusuf Yazıcı
