Lille hosts Sturm Graz this Thursday in the round of 16 second leg of the Europa Conference League (9 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this match.
A week after its great success in Austria (3-0), Lille approaches its second round against Sturm Graz in a very comfortable posture. The northern club will have to finish the job to punch its ticket for the quarter-finals of the Europa Conference League, thus confirming the good progress of the French representatives on the European scene at the start of 2024.
There is no question of underestimating the opponent, especially since LOSC will be without 6 players for this match. Tiago Morais, Rafael Fernande, Andrej Ilic, Samuel Umtiti, Ignacio Miramon and Adam Ounas are still in the infirmary and will be missed. “We have the same players who are always injured,” commented Paulo Fonseca, who could rotate.
The expected compositions
Lille : Mannone – Santos, Diakité, Yoro, Gudmundsson – Bouaddi, Cabella, André – Haraldsson, Zhegrova, David.
Sturm Graz : Jaros – Gazibegovic, Affengruber, Wuthrich, Schnegg – Gorenc-Stankovic, Lavalee, Boving, Horvat, Kiteisvilli – Biereth.
