Olympique Lyonnais travels to Hoffenheim for the 4th day of the Europa League, this Thursday (9 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this match.
With six points gleaned from its first three matches, theOlympique Lyonnais is one of the good students of this Europa League. The Rhone club had a faultless run before an unexpected and quite cruel setback against Besiktas Istanbul, 15 days ago (0-1). It is therefore with the desire to resume their march forward that Pierre Sage’s men approach the match at Hoffenheim, this Thursday evening (kick-off at 9 p.m.), while the derby against Saint-Etienne looms on Sunday .
“We are clearly in debt compared to the previous match, launched Pierre Sage. And we are clearly in the idea of winning so that we can have a very clean head when it comes time to play our derby on Sunday. The challenge is to mobilize the players on the two deadlines, both by associating them and by dissociating them. By combining it because the first will condition the state of mind in which we will approach the second, and by dissociating them because they are two different competitions. Some players will be in a logic of association and others of dissociation. » The stage is set.
The expected compositions
Hoffenheim: Baumann (c) – Akpoguma, Stach, Chaves – Gendrey, Tohumcu, Grillitsch, Prass – Bischof – Moerstedt, Kramaric.
Lyon: Descamps – Mata, Omari, Caleta-Car – Kumbedi, Caqueret (c), Tessmann, Abner – Benrahma – Mikautadze, Orban.
