Confirmed Lineups: Lyon vs. Frankfurt

The team sheets for tis evening’s Champions’ League duel between Eintracht Frankfurt and Olympique Lyonnais are in. 

Dino Toppmöller’s Eintracht Frankfurt hope to shake off a two-game-winless run and get their overall form back on track this evening at the famous “Park Olympique”. The 2021/22 Europa League champions need a win in order to keep their hopes of attaining this year’s knockouts alive. 

Toppmöller makes X changes to the XI that ended up drawing Augsburg in the league last Saturday. Slumping Egyptian striker Omar Marmoush makes way for Mario Götze. Nmandi Collins takes over for Rasmus Kristensen at right back.

It looks as if the SGE formation will shift from a 4-4-2 to a 4-2-3-1, but it all depends on whether Tuta will line up in midfield or central defense. A 4-4-2 with Hugo Ekitiké and Fares Chaibi up top is also a possibility.
