On Sunday, May 07, 2023 Lyon will face Montpellier at the Groupama Stadium Stadium, Décines-Charpieu in an important match in their Ligue 1. Watch here, Lyon vs Montpellier live stream – Ligue 1 2022/2023 Matchday 34.
Olympique Lyonnais will be looking to extend their hopes of playing in European football next season when they host Montpellier at Groupama Stadium on Sunday.
Les Gones are currently in seventh place with 53 points, six behind fifth-placed Lille in qualifying for the Conference League. With five matches remaining, Lyon must not waste the opportunity to pick up three points at home.
Lyon put in an excellent performance in April by picking up four wins out of five Ligue 1 matches. A 2-1 win from a losing position away to Strasbourg last weekend proved that they don’t give up easily.
However, a 2-1 defeat at home to top three side Marseille in the previous round due to an injury time own goal dealt a serious blow to their ambitions. They also have to improve their record against clubs currently below them in the table.
Montpellier does not have much pressure because they are safe from the threat of relegation with 11 points from the red zone. They are 12th with 43 points and looking to improve their position from 13th last season. La Paillade surprised many with important wins at home to Rennes (1-0) and away from home against Monaco (4-0) which gave them even more confidence.
Montpellier will be looking to repeat their 2-1 win at Lyon two seasons ago despite finishing in the top four. However, they should be wary as Lyon have dominated them lately with three straight wins since November 2021. Les Gones have scored eight goals and conceded just three during their winning streak.
This match will also be a sharp battle between two attackers who are on fire. Lyon’s Alexandre Lacazette is the club’s top scorer with 20 goals, which is the third-highest number of goals scored in the league in the 2022/2023 season, five of which were the opening goals that decided the game. Elye Wahi from Montpellier was also no less productive by scoring 13 goals, one of which was a reply goal for la Paillade when they lost 2-1 to Lyon in the first meeting.
