Team News: Injuries and Suspensions

Lille: The French side have a few injury concerns. Winger Edon Zhegrova (adductor), right-back Tiago Santos (ACL), and center-back Samuel Umtiti (calf) are all ruled out. Attacking midfielder Osame Sahraoui is a doubt as he’s missed the last four matches with a hip issue. Left wing-back Mitchel Bakker picked up a tendon injury last weekend and is questionable, while defender Gabriel Gudmundsson was ill and also in doubt. Midfielder Nabil Bentaleb is ineligible for the Champions League squad.

Borussia Dortmund: Dortmund’s squad is nearly full-strength. Left-back Daniel Svensson suffered a knee injury in the first leg and will be out for several weeks, and midfielder Felix Nmecha is also sidelined with a knee injury. Recent loan signing Carney Chukwuemeka is a doubt due to a thigh problem. Aside from those absences, coach Niko Kovač has the rest of the squad available – there are no suspensions, and star forward Serhou Guirassy (the Champions League’s top scorer with 10 goals) is fit to start.

Probable Lineups

  • Lille (4-3-3): Chevalier (GK); Meunier, Diakité, Alexsandro, Ismaily (DEF); Bouaddi, André, Mukau (MID); Haraldsson, David, E. Mbappé (FWD).
  • Borussia Dortmund (4-2-3-1): Kobel (GK); Ryerson, Can, Schlotterbeck, Bensebaini (DEF); Sabitzer, Groß (CM); Adeyemi, Brandt, Bynoe-Gittens (ATT MID); Guirassy (ST).

Match Preview

Lille come into this second leg on the verge of making history. The Ligue 1 side has never reached the Champions League quarter-finals before, so this is a huge opportunity. They earned a credible draw in Germany and have been strong at home in Europe – Lille are unbeaten at home in UCL this season, with four wins in five home matches. Domestically, Lille are in good form as well, coming off a 1-0 league win over Montpellier that boosted their confidence.

Borussia Dortmund, last year’s Champions League finalists, find themselves under pressure. The 1-1 draw in the first leg at home was a disappointment. Since then, their struggles continued with a shock 0-1 loss to Augsburg in the Bundesliga, leaving them mid-table. They’ll look to star forward Guirassy (who has 10 UCL goals) to continue his scoring streak.
