Match Preview
Lyon’s recent form has been inconsistent, but they bounced back soon enough. After a humiliating 2-1 defeat to Auxerre, the team’s mentality remained strong and in the next two matches, Lyon came back and beat Angers (1-3) and Grenoble Foot (2-1) in the ‘Coupe de France’.
Les Gones’ weakness lies in their front line, the lack of players who can hold the ball on the wings makes their attacks less stable. However, their midfield is strong, and Lyon can quickly take advantage of opportunities and organize counterattacks if the opponent makes a mistake.
Although lagging behind Lorient in the standings table, Lyon’s strength and performance are stronger than Lorient. Lyon’s home form has not been that great, with only one win in their last five home matches.
Laurent Blanc’s army is currently ranked 9th with 38 points, 12 points behind the top 4, and their chances of competing for a place in the UEFA Champions League are not very promising. However, they still have to focus on Ligue 1.
Meanwhile, Lorient are just one point above Lyon and are aiming for a European place next season. They are only 5 points adrift of the team that qualified for European competition occupied by Rennes in fifth.
Lorient has a win rate of up to 64% from the start of the game, which is one of the highest win rates in Ligue 1. In their last 10 matches against Lyon, Les Merlus have three wins and four draws, indicating that they are not far from Lyon.
In tonight’s match which can be watched live stream, Lyon will have the advantage of playing at home, and with their strong midfield, they can still be a threat to the Lorient defense.
It will be an interesting clash to watch, with both teams looking to secure their place in the table and qualify for European competition.
