Olympique Lyonnais faces Karabagh FC in Azerbaijan this Thursday in the Europa League (6:45 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this match.
Ninth in this regular phase of the Europa League with 7 points collected in 4 matches, Olympique Lyonnais has the opportunity to achieve a great operation this Thursday evening. To do this, Les Gones will have to avoid the trap set by the Karabagh team, at the other end of the continent, in Azerbaijan (kick-off at 6:45 p.m.).
Although this opposition is not a high-sounding name, Pierre Sage displayed all his distrust before the meeting.“It’s a team capable of very good performances, as we saw against Ajax, noted the coach of theOL. On the defensive side, we have identified opportunities, but we will have to be at a good level to exploit them. It is therefore a great challenge that awaits us tomorrow. We mainly analyzed their matches in the European Cup, because they fit better in the context of tomorrow’s match. It is on these meetings that we focused. »
