How Lille could line up against Paris Saint-Germain

Sports Mole looks at how Lille could line up for their Ligue 1 showdown with Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday afternoon.

Lille have very few selection concerns for their trip to the Parc des Princes to take on Paris Saint-Germain in Saturday's top-of-the-table clash in Ligue 1.

Jonathan Ikone missed the shock defeat to Nimes before the international break, but the attacker took part in the Euros for the France Under-21s team and will be raring to go for this battle.

Ikone's potential return would likely see Timothy Weah drop down to the bench, while Yusuf Yazici may also be restricted to a substitute outing if Burak Yilmaz and Jonathan David form a partnership up top once more.

Xeka surprisingly started and scored against Nimes, but Renato Sanches and Boubakary Soumare will battle it out to start in his place this week, while Benjamin Andre is indispensable in the engine room.

Jeremy Pied is struggling with a sprained ankle and Zeki Celik has contracted coronavirus, so Tiago Djalo will likely be forced to deputise on the right-hand side.

Even though Domagoj Bradaric produced a stunning effort to send Croatia Under-21s through in the Euros at England's expense, he is unlikely to force his way into the team over Reinildo at left-back.

Sven Botman and a man 16 years his senior in Jose Fonte will be tasked with keeping Neymar and Kylian Mbappe quiet, while goalkeeper Mike Maignan is aiming to build on the 16 clean sheets he already boasts this season.

Lille possible starting lineup:
Maignan; Djalo, Fonte, Botman, Reinildo; Ikone, Andre, Sanches, Bamba; David, Yilmaz
