Lyon Preview – Can Lyon bounce back at home?
Lyon were handed a narrow 1-0 defeat away form home last time out in Ligue 1 when they lost on the road at 4th placed Lille, but having recently picked up a draw followed by back-to-back wins in the French top flight, Lyon will be confident that they can get something out of this upcoming clash with Reims.
Lyon had earned a point in a 1-1 draw at home with Strasbourg before posting back-to-back victories over Metz 2-0 away and a 2-0 home win against Saint-Etienne but last week’s defeat has resulted in Lyon dropping down to 7th place in Ligue 1 and more importantly, 9 points adrift now of 4th placed Lille.
The hosts therefore must win this Friday night clash against Reims to have any chance of staying in touch with the top four, but they bring a 4-match unbeaten sequence at home into this encounter which includes an earlier 3-0 win against Toulouse.
Reims Preview – Can Reims extend unbeaten run?
Friday night’s visitors, Reims, also bring a 4-match unbeaten sequence into this clash against Lyon as they’ve picked up useful points in draws with Saint-Etienne and Monaco, both in 1-1 results and both away from home while wins either side of these stalemates at home against Rennes and Brest have helped maintain Reims’ push for a possible top four finish.
However, Reims also find themselves some way behind 4th placed Lille as a margin of 8 points separates the visitors from the 4th placed side, so they too will be desperate to post a valuable three points in this clash at Lyon.
This may be easier said than done though as Reims have managed to record just 1 away win out of their last 6 matches on the road in Ligue 1 amidst an overall away record of 5-4-5 14/14 and includes defeats at Nimes and Strasbourg.
