This is the tactical stop that coach Franck Haise uses and that has worked quite well for him, with a 5-line back, two midfield players and three attackers:

The players are already warming up before the game:

Lens travels south to take on Lyon at Groupama Stadium tonight in Game 3 of Ligue 1 this weekend.

Lyon have been improving recently, but come into today's game after a painful loss, while the visitors come on a winning streak and remain second in the standings.

RC Lens's starting XI to face Lyon:

Lyon's starting XI to face RC Lens:

Defender Massadio Haidara is Lens's only casualty to date as he remains out with a groin injury.

That means Haise has almost a full squad to choose from, but considering his strong form and 4-1 win last weekend, there's a very slim chance that the starting eleven will have some changes, which means the squad You should line up according to your coach's favorite formation but with different players.

Kadewere is suspended by Lyon after the aforementioned red card, which should see former Liverpool player Xherdan Shaqiri return as a starter to the right wing, forming an attacking front four with Toko Ekambi, Aouar and Lucas Paquetá.

Coach Peter Bosz will also be without four players through injury: Islam Slimani, Moussa Dembele, Lenny Pintor and Jeff Reine-Adelaide, who are expected to return in November.
