Olympique Lyonnais form and stats

Olympique participated in Coupe de France the last season, where they reached the semi-finals.

30 points is a decent return from 14 Ligue 1 games here at Groupama OL Academy Décines-Charpieu for Olympique Lyonnais. The data says 9 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses.

Olympique Lyonnais's last game was hosting Rennes and winning 1-0. Preceding that game was the away draw at Olympique Marseille that finished 1-1.

World class coaching! That was the thoughts of R. Garcia when Houssem Aouar scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 58th minute.

Olympique are believed to win this game, given a winning chance of about 70% by the bookmakers. We have checked our records for their performance in similar circumstances and found ten matches and the win/draw/lost stats: Won six, drew two and lost two.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (29 in 14 games), Olympique's attacking play is working. Olympique have only conceded 12 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Sochaux form and stats

Last season their Coupe de France adventure ended in the 7th round.

As the visiting team in Ligue 2 matches, Sochaux have produced an overall stat of 5-7-2 so far. Sochaux have won three away matches in a row now and will not be intimidated by being the visitors in this fixture.

Sochaux play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-1 victory visiting Niort. Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs Guingamp.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Sochaux played away with similar odds. This revealed one game. The visitors overcame the odds to win zero times, zero were draws and the home team won as expected one time.

Sochaux find the net regularly in their away games. 18 goals from 14 away fixtures in the league. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (9 so far). There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: six wins for Olympique, one draw and three wins for Sochaux. Over 2,5 goals: six times; under 2,5 goals: four games.
