Revision 3, updated 35 days ago

The Oracle's third look: Bulatović in; Titraoui out.

A. Bulatović replaces Y. Titraoui, sidelined by injury, as Lens travel to Slavia Praha in a 3-4-2-1 shape. The swap accounts for the sole change from their previous XI.

The data: Leans Slavia Praha at 33%, far from settled. Slavia Praha are without Moses.

Slavia Praha: Out: Moses (injury), Ouanda (injury), Suleiman (health problems), Ogbu (achilles tendon injury), Kolář (off the roster), N'Guessan (injury), Holeš (health problems), Provod (ankle injury) · Doubtful: Zima (concussion)

Lens: Out: Mesloub (off the roster), Jourdren (off the roster), Baidoo (knee injury), Chavez (thigh injury), Titraoui (injury), Abdulhamid (contusion), Nawrocki (knee injury) · Doubtful: Udol (injury)
