Lyon predicted XI v Lens: Roman Yaremchuk to partner Endrick in attack

Roman Yaremchuk is expected to once again partner Endrick in the Olympique Lyonnais attack when they host RC Lens in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France.

Paulo Fonseca must once again contend with absences on Thursday night. Pavel Sulc, one of Lyon’s most in-form players this season, is the biggest miss. He is joined on the sidelines by Ruben Kluivert, Afonso Moreira, Ernest Nuamah and Malick Fofana. The latter is slightly behind in his recovery from an ankle injury, but is expected back within the fortnight. Nuamah, meanwhile, has not played for a year, having suffered an ACL.

OL are expected to make a change in goal, with back-up goalkeeper Rémy Descamps coming in for Dominik Greif. Tanner Tessmann ceding his place for Abner may be the only other change from the side that lost 3-2 to Olympique de Marseille on Sunday.
