Bodø/Glimt v Lille: probable line-ups for Champions League league-phase clash

FK Bodø/Glimt host LOSC at Aspmyra Stadion on matchday four of the Champions League league phase, with both sides seeking points that could prove important to their progress in the competition.

The Norwegian side will look to continue its strong home record in European football, while Lille are aiming to collect their first points of this season’s Champions League campaign.

Bodø/Glimt

Bodø/Glimt have several fitness concerns ahead of the match. Jens Hauge was forced off early during the recent victory over Viking and remains a major doubt. Goalkeeper Julian Faye Lund is also uncertain to feature.

Hakon Evjen, Magnus Riisnæs and August Mikkelsen are unavailable, leaving the Norwegian club with a number of absences to manage as it prepares for Lille’s visit.

Probable Bodø/Glimt XI

Goalkeeper: Nikita Haikin

Defenders: Fredrik Sjøvold, Odin Bjørtuft, Jostein Gundersen, Fredrik Bjørkan

Midfielders: Sondre Auklend, Patrick Berg, Sondre Brunstad Fet, Ole Didrik Blomberg

Forwards: Andreas Helmersen, Ole Didrik Blomberg

Lille

Davide Ancelotti’s Lille squad has not suffered any additional injury setbacks, but the French club remain without several important players.

Ayase Ueda, Hamza Igamane and Tiago Santos are continuing their recovery at the club’s medical facilities. Ethan Mbappe is also unavailable as he serves the remainder of the suspension imposed after his dismissal on matchday one.

Lille arrive in Norway still searching for their first points in this Champions League campaign, while their hosts will rely on their European results at Aspmyra Stadion.

Probable Lille XI

Goalkeeper: Berke Ozer

Defenders: Maxima Goffi, Nathan Ngoy, Alexsandro, Romain Perraud

Midfielders: Benjamin Andre, Nabil Bentaleb, Ngal’ayel Mukau

Forwards: Hakon Arnar Haraldsson, Soriba Diaoune, Dilane Bakwa

Bodø/Glimt will soon play Lille in their fourth match of the Champions League league phase.
