Ligue 1 will start again with Week 8 today. One match that attracted attention was the match between Lyon and Lorient, two teams that are currently in the relegation zone. Both teams have had a bad start to the season, but Lyon is even worse because they haven’t won a single game. They even had to replace coach Laurent Blanc with Gattuso, but the results were still not satisfactory. Can Lyon achieve their first win under the new coach?
Lyon really needs a win to improve their morale and position in the standings. They have not scored a goal since Gattuso took over and have lost eight of their last ten games in all competitions.
However, in football nothing is impossible. Lyon still has better strength and quality than Lorient. They also have the advantage of playing at home and being supported by the fans. If Lyon plays optimally and takes advantage of opportunities, they can get three valuable points.
Lorient is also not an easy opponent for Lyon. They are unbeaten in nine of the last thirteen matches and scored ten goals, much more than Lyon.
They also have a pretty good meeting record with Lyon when they didn’t lose in three of their previous four meetings. Lorient will not just give up and will try to provide fierce resistance to Lyon by playing defensively and counter-attacking.
If you look at the current performance of the two teams, it seems that Lyon is still the favorite team. They are considered to have many factors to hope for a positive result in this match. This is a chance for Lyon to show some soul and improvement after a dismal period.
