The third matchday of the Champions League continues this Wednesday evening. Lille host Galatasaray. The two sides have just announced their starting lineups.

For this match, Davide Ancelotti must do without the injured Tiago Santos and Ueda, while Mbappé is suspended. Özer and Alexsandro return to the starting XI. On the other side, Okan Buruk is without the injured Rafael Leão, while Torreira, who had been a doubt, is ultimately named in the starting lineup.

The starting lineups

A genuine weapon for the Turkish side, Victor Osimhen starts the match. The Nigerian striker will therefore face his former club six years after leaving.

The lineups for both teams:

Lille: Özer – Goffi, Ngoy, Alexsandro, Verdonk – André (c), Bentaleb, Mukau – Bakwa, Haraldsson, Diaoune.

Galatasaray: Çakir – Sallai, Sanchez, Bardakci (c), Jakobs – Gabriel Sara, Torreira, Batrakov – Akgün, Osimhen, Yilmaz.
