Lille have started their season on a positive note, but recently faced a setback when they were dominated by RC Lens in their previous league fixture. It was an underwhelming performance by them. They will be looking to come out with a better strategy for their upcoming fixture.
Olympique Lyonnais are looking to continue their winning run at the moment. They defeated Angers in their last Ligue 1 fixture and FC Utrecht in their UEFA Europa League fixture. Lyon are looking confident in the season at the moment and will be keen on securing a win in their upcoming fixture.

He has come up with multiple match-winning performances in the past and will be looking to deliver another.
Corentin Tolisso (Lyon)
