ℹ️ Team News: Toulouse

Rasmus Nicolaisen (Injury to the ankle), Niklas Schmidt (Cruciate ligament tear) and Zakaria Aboukhlal (Dead leg) won’t be playing for Toulouse boss Carles Martínez Novell.

In our view, Toulouse will possibly use a 4-4-2 formation in the match and select Guillaume Restes, Djibril Sidibe, Charlie Cresswell, Mark McKenzie, Aron Doennum, C. Casseres Jr., Vincent Sierro, Gabriel Suazo, Shavy Babicka, Yann Gboho and Frank Magri.

ℹ️ Team News: Lille

Lille boss Bruno Génésio has some current player fitness concerns. Samuel Umtiti (Calf injury), Edon Zhegrova (Adductor pain) and Tiago Santos (Cruciate ligament tear) will not be playing here.

There’s a good chance that LOSC will likely begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 formation, settling for Lucas Chevalier, Thomas Meunier, Bafode Diakite, Alexsandro Ribeiro, Gabriel Gudmundsson, Benjamin Andre, Andre Gomes, Mitchel Bakker, H. Arnar Haraldsson, M. Fernandez-Pardo and Jonathan David.

💭 Prediction

In our opinion, Lille and Toulouse could well end up finding themselves level here, with both teams capable of netting.

A close call, and we think a draw is quite likely. That’s why our selection here is for a very close game with a 1-1 scoreline at the end of this game.
