Captain Tomáš Holeš is expected to miss the match, while David Moses, El Hadji Malick Diouf Ouanda, Lukáš Provod and Sani Suleiman are also unavailable.
David Zima remains a fitness concern after failing to complete the victory over Brno. The defender returned to team training on Wednesday, and Trpišovský indicated that he was likely to be available, although a final decision was expected after Thursday’s morning activation session.
If Zima is cleared, he should join Štěpán Chaloupek and Tomáš Vlček in Slavia’s three-man defence. Tomáš Chorý is expected to lead the attack, although Mojmír Chytil is pushing for selection after scoring four home goals this season.
Yacine Titraoui has been ruled out after sustaining an injury against Lorient. Matthieu Udol has been cleared to play after returning to full training, while summer signing Jean-Clair Todibo and Junior Kadile have both travelled with the squad.
Jonathan Gradit, Samson Baidoo, Nidal Čelik, Maik Nawrocki and Jhoanner Chávez remain among Lens’ established absentees. Todibo could therefore make his debut on the right of a three-man defence.
Florian Thauvin has scored four times in his opening four competitive appearances and should operate behind the central striker. Odsonne Édouard is expected to lead the attack, although former Slavia forward Abdallah Sima provides another option.
Slavia Prague – 3-4-2-1: Jakub Markovič; Tomáš Vlček, David Zima, Štěpán Chaloupek; Samuel Isife, Wiktor Nowak, Michal Sadílek, David Jurásek; Danijel Šturm, Emmanuel Ayaosi; Tomáš Chorý.
Lens – 3-4-2-1: Robin Risser; Kyllian Antonio, Ismaëlo Ganiou, Jean-Clair Todibo; Przemysław Frankowski Skóraś, Nampalys Haïdara, Michaël Cuisance, Matthieu Udol; Florian Thauvin, Luka Ivanović; Odsonne Édouard.
