Olympique Lyonnais is one step away from having a more than perfect League phase campaign. By winning this Thursday, January 29 against PAOK Salonika or by achieving a better result than their pursuers, OL will maintain their place at the top of the Europa League rankings. Whatever the case, the Lyonnais have already achieved the essential by validating their ticket for the round of 16.
Qualified for the play-offs, the PAOK players will have heavy hearts in Décines, after the terrible accident of a supporters’ minibus on Tuesday January 27. Seven supporters of the Greek football club were killed and three injured in the collision between their minibus and a truck in Romania, local police and Greek authorities said. “A tribute will be paid during the OL – PAOK match on January 29 at Groupama Stadium,” the Rhone club announced on X.
The Lyon – PAOK Salonika match kicks off at 9 p.m. this Thursday, January 29. The meeting will be followed live on television on Canal + Foot.
