Match Preview
| Lyon will be looking to overtake third-placed Marseille in the Ligue 1 (L1) standings as they host Nîmes, a team desperate for a win after going seven-straight games without victory (D4, L3) – their worst winless league run since April/September 2015. |
| After a disappointing home draw against 19th-placed Nantes, the Lyonnais come into this encounter on the back of a 5-0 humiliation away to league-leaders PSG before the international break. Encouragingly, Bruno Génésio’s men have lost only one of their last 12 top-flight home games (W9, D2, L1), scoring at least two goals in nine of those outings. |
| Nîmes are now winless in their last four L1 away games (D2, L2), succumbing to a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Montpellier in their last away match. That made it 11 goals conceded on the road this campaign – the second-worst away defensive record in L1. |
| Bernard Blaquart’s men have now failed to score in their last three league fixtures. The last time Nîmes failed to score in four-consecutive games was in Ligue 2 during May/July 2015. |
| Lyon have won 17 of 29 previous home H2H encounters (W17, D8, L4), recording a positive goal difference of plus 24 (GF 54, GA 30). |
| Players to watch: Lyon striker Moussa Dembélé has three goals in his last three games in all competitions, while winger Antonin Bobichon has been involved in two of Nîmes’ last four L1 goals (one goal, one assist). |
| Stat attack: Lyon have scored during the first-half in eight of their last ten home league games. |
| Nîmes boast L1’s second-best away attacking record, having scored eight goals in five games – an average of 1.6 goals per match. |
| Lyon have averaged 8.2 shots on target per L1 home game this season – the highest in the league. |
