APOEL Nicosia has one surprise in their lineup for their UEFA Champions League match against Olympique Lyonnais, and it’s a pleasant one. Paulo Jorge has been declared fit and will start in defense for the visitors. Lyon captain Cris returns to defense for his side. Surprisingly, neither Bafetimbi Gomis or Jimmy Briand will start for Lyon, as youngster Alexandre Lacazette gets a start. Here are the lineups.
