Lyon welcome back Pavel Sulc and Corentin Tolisso for Auxerre clash | OneFootball

Lyon will welcome back Pavel Sulc and Corentin Tolisso for Auxerre at Groupama Stadium on Saturday at 15:00, the 58th Ligue 1 meeting between the clubs. The pair missed the game against PSG last Sunday.

According to Le Progres, head coach Paulo Fonseca confirmed both are in the squad, adding it would be difficult for them to start but they are ready. He described the Champions League objective as positive pressure and said the club remains calm, noting few expected Lyon to be in this position with four games left.

Malick Fofana, Ernest Nuamah and Rémi Himbert remain sidelined. There is hope they could rejoin full training next week and possibly be involved against Rennes on Sunday 3 May at 20:45.

Nicolas Tagliafico is in contention to face Auxerre after completing a three-match suspension.

Lyon sit third and need to hold that position. The stakes remain clear with four matches to play.
