Three sub performances were followed up with his first start against Caen in Lille’s 1-0 victory—but then he was dropped to the bench for the 1-1 draw with Rennes last week. Boufal’s suspension should give the Portuguese winger another opportunity to impress, and a positive performance could help win more time in the Lille starting XI. Blessed with great pace, his strength and low centre of gravity make him a problem for any defence. Unlike Boufal, Lopes is more direct with his style and less bothered about flash dribbling. Lille will see little of the ball on Saturday and will need to take any chances that appear on the break—that’s where Lopes will enjoy space to create and expose defenders.

Manager Frederic Antonetti will have to choose between Yassine Benzia and Junior Tallo as the centre-forward.

These two teams will meet again on April 23 in the final of the Coupe de la Ligue at the Stade de France, so this is a chance for the away side to show that they can compete with Laurent Blanc’s side. The last team Lille travelled to Paris they were soundly beaten 6-1 by PSG, arriving to find the Parisians in irresistible form. They had no chance of getting a result that day. At the start of the campaign Lille were close to picking up an opening day draw against the champions, but Herve Renard’s side, although playing with an extra man for the majority of the game, failed to test Kevin Trapp’s goal and were beaten by Lucas Moura’s solitary strike.
Jean Catuffe/Getty ImagesSince then, PSG have continued to play better and better and Lille have continued to show signs of inconsistency under new boss Frederic Antonetti.

His best players will struggle to play three games in less than a week, especially with the visit of Chelsea coming last in the sequence. His starting XI on Saturday will point towards who plays on Tuesday. At his Friday press conference, Blanc admitted he wouldn't be able to name his squad until after training that day, but he mentioned that both Javier Pastore and Marco Verratti would be doubtful to start, hinting that if all goes well, the Italian could be part of the playing squad. Expect Layvin Kurzawa, Benjamin Stambouli and possibly Marquinhos all to start.
