Olympique Lyonnais faces a swift return to Ligue 1 action after their recent exit from the UEFA Europa League. The team was eliminated by Celta de Vigo, leaving them eager to regain form against AS Monaco.
Lyon’s Predicted XI vs Monaco: Key Changes
Manager Paulo Fonseca will have to adjust his lineup due to the suspension of midfielder Tyler Morton. The English youth international’s absence opens the door for Orel Mangala to take the field. He has recently returned from an ACL injury that limited his playing time this season.
Another notable inclusion is Pavel Sulc, who is expected to start after a recent stint on the bench. He adds much-needed depth to Lyon’s squad, which has been struggling to maintain their position in the top four of Ligue 1.
Lyon’s Likely Lineup Against AS Monaco
- Goalkeeper: Dominik Greif
- Defenders: Nicolás Tagliafico, Moussa Niakhaté, Clinton Mata, Hans Hateboer
- Midfielders: Afonso Moreira, Corentin Tolisso, Orel Mangala
- Forwards: Endrick, Roman Yaremchuk, Pavel Sulc
The match against Monaco is crucial as Lyon seeks to regain their footing in the league. Consistency will be vital for their aspirations to clinch a European spot.
