It's official, folks! Moroccan striker Hamza Igamane gets his first start for LOSC in the Europa League! After a tough loss to Lens in the derby, LOSC is looking to bounce back against Brann this Thursday evening (6:45 pm).
Coach Bruno Genesio is shaking things up, giving Igamane a chance to shine. So far, Igamane has only seen action as a substitute, but he made a splash with a double in his debut against Lorient. Now, he's ready to prove himself from the start.
Igamane won't be alone. He'll be supported by a strong midfield trio of Fernandez-Pardo, Haraldsson, and Sahraoui, with Bentaleb and Mukau holding down the fort. In defence, Tiago Santos makes a comeback after a knee injury, and young Adeagan Goffi (17) gets his first start as a pro.
Predicted Lineups:
- LOSC: Ozer-Tiago Santos, Goffi, Mbemba, Verdonk-Bentaleb, Mukau-Fernandez-Pardo, Haraldsson, Sahraoui-Igamane
- Brann: Dyngeland – Pedersen, Knudsen, Helland, Dragsnes – Kornvig, Sorensen, Myhre – Holm, Magnusson, Castro
Can LOSC overcome their recent defeat and kick off their Europa League campaign with a win? All eyes will be on Hamza Igamane as he leads the attack. Tune in to find out!
