Olympique Lyonnais have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Lorient form and stats

Lorient have only played one Ligue 1 game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 6 wins, 6 draws and 7 defeats from 19 matches.

A good away victory last time out for Lorient, who won 1-0 against Ajaccio (placed 20th). Defender Talbi got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.83/10. Talbi won 8 of 10 duels.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Lens (2-5).

The match schedule is unforgiving for Lorient as they have a new game in only four days, a Ligue 1 match thankfully also at home. Nantes are visiting.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Lorient at home in the league. 2 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.

Olympique Lyonnais form and stats

The visitors settled for one point in their first Ligue 1 away game of the season. During their previous season 19 away games resulted in 6 wins, 6 draws and 7 defeats.

Olympique Lyonnais go into this game after a win, the home game against Angers SCO that ended 5-0. As you can tell from the results above, Lyon was very dominant against Angers SCO, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 5-0 (!) with Ekambi (2), Lacazette, Lukeba and Dembélé providing the goals. Defender Lukeba was the best team player with a rating of 8.84. Lukeba scored one goal and won 4 of 7 duels.

Before that, Olympique Lyonnais secured a home win against Auxerre with the score 2-1.

The schedule is very tough for Lyon now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Ligue 1 game at Monaco is waiting in only four days.

Olympique Lyonnais have the goal stats of 1-1 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Olympique Lyonnais have won at least one point in the last 4 fixtures (2-2-0) versus Lorient.
