Lyon predicted XI v Rennes: Gift Orban set to make his debut | OneFootball

Gift Orban is expected to make his debut for Olympique Lyonnais when Pierre Sage’s side face Stade Rennais on Friday evening.

Lyon have thus far been highly active in the transfer window as they look to stave off relegation. Orban and Malick Fofana have both arrived for big money. The former is expected to start alongside Alexandre Lacazette up front, whilst the latter is expected to begin the encounter on the bench.

Jake O’Brien returns for Les Gones following a suspension, however, Duje Ćaleta-Car is still out after also receiving a red card against Le Havre AC. Johann Lepenant is the only other major absentee for Pierre Sage’s side, as they look to bounce back from that defeat against Les Ciel et Marines a fortnight ago.
