LYON are set to field a strong side for tonight’s match with Celtic. The Ligue 1 side have their match with Juventus next month in mind and will be lining up in what is perceived as being their strongest XI.

Get French Football News has said that the French outfit will play all their stars in the game against Neil Lennon’s side, having lost 2-0 to Rangers while starting the majority of fringe players.

This line-up would mean that ex-Celtic striker Moussa Dembele will be starting against his former teammates for the game in Lyon tonight. Another familiar face is Jason Denayer, who enjoyed a year loan spell in 2014/15 under Ronny Deila. The central defender will be tasked with marking Odsonne Edouard in the clash.

Dembele left for Lyon at the end of the summer transfer window for £20m in 2018 after a reported falling out with Brendan Rodgers. In the 9IAR celebrations earlier this year, Dembele called Celtic ‘the greatest club in the world’. Dembele was a fan favourite instantly with a hat-trick against Rangers at Celtic Park. He scored 51 goals in 94 appearances across the two seasons, winning six trophies during his trophy-laden spell in Glasgow.
