The Mastiffs inherited Red Star Belgrade in the Europa League play-off draw this Friday, in Switzerland.
Lille is fixed. Qualified down to the wire on Thursday, during the last day, thanks to a victory over Friborg (1-0), the Mastiffs will face Red Star Belgrade in the Europa League play-offs, on February 19 and 26. First leg in Pierre-Mauroy, return match in the hell of Marakana.
Red Star is a team that Bruno Genesio’s players have already played against… and lost in the league phase (1-0), at the beginning of November. Remember that the other option was to fall on the Spaniards Celta Vigo. And in the round of 16? In the event of qualification, Losc would face the English side Aston Villa, coached by Unai Emery, or… OL. Another 100% Ligue 1 duel in sight, after PSG-Monaco in the Champions League?
