Lucas Chevalier - Concedes early goal Chevalier gave up an early goal in Lille's 1-1 draw against Borussia Dortmund Tuesday in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 tie.

Impact Chevalier actually didn't make a single save, as Dortmund only put one shot on target. The goalkeeper should have a much quieter outing Saturday against Montpellier. The last-place side in Ligue 1 has scored just 21 goals in 24 matches this season.

Jonathan David - Assists in draw David got an assist on Lille's equalizing goal in Tuesday's 1-1 draw against Borussia Dortmund in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 tie.

Impact The forward didn't put either of his two shots on target but managed to set up the equalizing goal. He should continue to be productive against Montpellier Saturday, as the side has allowed 58 goals in league play this season.

Hakon Arnar Haraldsson - Nets equalizer Haraldsson scored the equalizing goal in Lille's 1-1 draw with Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League round of 16 first leg Tuesday.

Impact Haraldsson took just one shot but made it count for the French side. He should be more active in front of goal Saturday against Montpellier, a side that has given up 58 goals in Ligue 1 this season.

Gabriel Gudmundsson - Available to face Dortmund Gudmundsson wasn't training on Monday but has been included in the squad for Tuesday's Champions League clash against Dortmund, the club announced.

Impact Gudmundsson missed training on Monday for undisclosed reasons but has been included in the squad for Tuesday's match. He has been the preferred starter at left-back this season and could retain his spot in the lineup. If not, Ismaily would likely take his place.

Osame Sahraoui - Not in the squad list Sahraoui (hip) isn't in the squad list for Tuesday's Champions League clash against Dortmund, the club announced.

Impact Sahraoui did not train Monday and will miss a third straight game with a hip issue after being left out of the squad. His absence will not affect the starting lineup as he has mainly been a bench option this season, though his impact as a substitute could have been useful. His next chance to return will be against Montpellier if he recovers in time.

Osame Sahraoui - Doesn't train, unlikely Tuesday Sahraoui (hip) was not included in training Monday and is likely to miss out on Tuesday's contest against Dortmund, according to Le Petit Lillios.

Impact Sahraoui appears to be likely to miss a third straight match Tuesday, as the attacker was not yet in training the day ahead of the contest. This is after he was absent from their past two league games due to a hip injury. His availability looks unlikely, although it shouldn't be a major loss for the club, starting in 14 of his 29 appearances and serving in a more rotational role.

Gabriel Gudmundsson - Misses training Monday Gudmundsson was not in training Monday and is questionable for Tuesday's match against Dortmund, according to Le Petit Lillois.

Impact Gudmundsson is now in question for Tuesday's UCL contest after he was absent from training the day before the contest. This comes after he did start in their last match and exited in the 80th minute, possibly due to an injury. He did start in their past two contests, so he will hope to be fit, with Ismaily as a possible replacement if he can't play.

MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE

Aissa Mandi - Available to return in UCL Mandi completed his Champions League ban and could be an option to face Dortmund on Tuesday.

Impact Mandi missed the final game of the UCL league phase due to a suspension, but the center-back will be an option for Tuesday's clash. Don't expect him to jump right back into the XI, however, as he's been an unused sub in each of Lille's last three domestic games, with Lille going W2, L1 in that span.

Lucas Chevalier - Gives up four in loss Chevalier did make seven saves in Lille's 4-1 loss to Paris Saint-Germain Saturday but did also allow four goals.

Impact The scoreline could've been much worse if not for Chevalier's effort, but he has little time to dwell on this result. Lille face a Borussia Dortmund side Tuesday which has scored 45 goals in 24 league matches, which means Chevalier is potentially in for another busy afternoon.

Jonathan David - Scores off bench David managed to get a late goal in Lille's 4-1 loss Saturday against Paris Saint-Germain.

Impact The forward came off the bench and delivered a late goal, giving him confidence ahead of Tuesday's Champions League clash against Borussia Dortmund, who have allowed 38 goals in 24 league matches this season.

Remy Cabella - Finds bench spot Cabella (hamstring) is on the bench for Saturday's match against PSG.

Impact Cabella was back in training Wednesday, so it is no surprise to see the attacker making the team sheet Saturday. He has started in 15 of his 25 appearances this season and will hope to see some time to test his legs, continuing in a rotational role.

Remy Cabella - Back in training Wednesday Cabella (hamstring) was spotted in training Wednesday, suggesting he could be available for Saturday's match against Paris, the club announced.

Impact Cabella missed the last two games with a hamstring injury but returned to training Wednesday, suggesting he could be available for Saturday's match against Paris. The playmaker has started eight of his last 10 games, so he could return directly to the starting lineup if fully fit.

Impact Bakker missed Saturday's 2-1 win against Monaco and is available to play on Saturday. He is expected to return directly to the starting lineup since he started most of the important games recently.

Lucas Chevalier - Two saves in win Chevalier recorded two saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Monaco.

Impact Chevalier limited opponents to no more than one goal for the third time in five league games. This also marked the third time in that span that he recorded at least two saves. Up next for Lille is a meeting with Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday.

Hakon Arnar Haraldsson - Two goals in win Haraldsson scored two goals to go with three shots (three on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-1 win against Monaco.

Impact Haraldsson is up to four goals this season, after he delivered his first multi-goal appearance of the campaign. He now has at least one shot in eight straight league games and is up to a total of seven shots on target in that span. Additionally, he has accounted for at least one chance created in seven consecutive outings and has a total of 15 chances created over that period.

FEBRUARY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Ngal'ayel Mukau - First assist Mukau assisted once to go with three shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-1 win against Monaco.

Impact Mukau fed the ball to Hakon Haraldsson, who buried a shot from the center of the box in the 22nd minute to give Lille a 1-0 lead. The assist marked the first of the season for Mukau, who has now accounted for two chances created in two of his last three appearances. Makau also has completed at least 30 passes in four of his last five appearances.
