Overall Ligue 1 stats at home this season for Lorient, who have the most conceded goals (61) in Ligue 1, are 7-2-7 (wins-draw-losses).

In their previous game, the manager C. Pélissier led his Lorient to a defeat in the Ligue 1 match away at Olympique Marseille. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stade Yves Allainmat - Le Moustoir. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-4 away at Lens.

Heartbreak for Lorient in their last match as Olympique Marseille's P. Lirola scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

The Lorient fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 23 in 16 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Lorient defense is not exactly impregnable. 27 goals conceded from 16 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
