Pre-match preview

Paris FC

Paris FC remain without Otávio, whose thigh injury has now cost him involvement in two of the last three matches, and Hamari Traoré is set to deputise again after making his first start of the campaign against Marseille last weekend.

Centrally, Diego Coppola has covered both sides of the back three this month, level with Samir Chergui on the right and the sharper of the two options alongside Moustapha Mbow on the left; he is in line to start there once more against Lyon.

Kevin Trapp is set to continue in goal after a composed run of nine saves in the last three matches, with Lassine Sinayoko expected to lead the line again after scoring four goals in that same spell.

Lyon

Lyon look set to stick with Abner and Pavel Šulc, both handed their first starts of the season in Sunday's win over Auxerre, while Nicolás Tagliafico drops out again after not featuring in that match at all.

Over the last three matches, Ernest Nuamah has been the standout performer for Lyon, involved in a goal and an assist, and he is expected to continue on the flank alongside Šulc, who set up two goals in his own outing last time out.

Mads Bidstrup is in line to keep his place in midfield after starting each of Lyon's last three matches, withdrawn between the hour mark and the 80th minute every time.
