Match Preview
| After being knocked out of the Champions League on Wednesday, Lyon come into this game on the back of just two defeats in their last 21 Ligue 1 (L1) home fixtures (W15, D4, L2), while scoring in both halves in 50% of their 14 home league fixtures this term. |
| If the hosts win this game it will likely be with a clean sheet, as Lyon have kept one in ten of their last 15 home league wins. Additionally, Lyon have a great H2H record in the top flight on home soil against Montpellier (W14, D7, L5), while losing just one of their last ten league meetings across all venues (W5, D4, L1). |
| Montpellier are a team with just two wins across their last 13 L1 outings (W2, D7, L4), but they have been solid on the road, losing just three of their 14 L1 away fixtures this term (W5, D6, L3). |
| In addition, Michel Der Zakarian’s men boast the division’s (joint) fifth-best away defence, conceding just 1.14 goals on average per away match thus far. However, the visitors have won just one of their last eight away matches across all competitions (W1, D4, L3), failing to score in half of those road trips. |
| Players to watch: Lyon striker Moussa Dembélé has eleven goals and two assists in L1 this season. Meanwhile, Montpellier’s joint-top scorer Andy Delort (ten L1 goals) has found the net in three of his last five L1 appearances! |
| Stat attack: Lyon have enjoyed the second-highest average possession ratio per home match (58%) in the top flight this season. |
| Montpellier are yet to score a goal within the first 15 minutes of any L1 road trip this season. |
| Lyon have averaged 7.07 shots on target per L1 home game this season – the highest in the league. |
