Lille prepares for Ligue 1 fixture against Toulouse on Thursday night

Lille OSC travels to face Toulouse FC on Thursday following a draw against Paris Saint-Germain last weekend. Davide Ancelotti manages a near-complete squad for the match, with Hamza Igamane remaining the only absentee due to an ACL injury sustained in February. While Lille completed several late transfer window signings, manager Davide Ancelotti indicates that players like Ayase Ueda are unlikely to start. Dilane Bakwa, currently on loan from Nottingham Forest, is considered a potential candidate for his first start after scoring as a substitute against Paris Saint-Germain. The projected starting lineup includes Berke Ozer in goal with a defensive back line consisting of Romain Perraud, Alexsandro, Nathan Ngoy, and Tiago Santos.
