Paris FC ponder tweaks for Lyon or stick with Marseille winners? | OneFootball

Liam Rosenior could make one or two tweaks to Paris FC’s line-up for Lyon on Saturday night at Jean-Bouin, compared with the side that won 3-2 at Marseille last weekend.

According to L'Équipe, Rosenior has looked to cool any hype despite his team sitting second behind Monaco before matchday four. He said it is fine to dream and have ambition, yet they must stay grounded, with only three matches won and many still to play. He added the next match is the most important and that Saturday will be very tough against a top side.

For their second home outing of the season, the staff could adjust one or two positions from the XI that started at the Vélodrome. Four left-sided defenders are out injured, Otavio, Thibault De Smet, Nhoa Sangui and Emmanuel Mbemba. Hamari Traoré should again fill in at left-back, with Adama Camara on the right.

At centre-back, Moustapha Mbow, a substitute for the past two games, could come in for Samir Chergui or Diego Coppola.

In midfield, Maxime Lopez and Pierre Lees-Melou appear set to continue. Up front, Ilan Kebbal, Pablo Pagis, Luca Koleosho and Lassine Sinayoko impressed at Marseille, though Moses Simon could earn another start after starting against Nice, 3-0. Jonathan Ikoné is back from injury, expected to be in the squad but unlikely to start.
