Season ticket holders at Groupama Stadium haven't seen too many victories this season, with Olympique Lyonnais languishing in the 14th position so far. The guesting Nice will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Olympique Lyonnais form and stats
Olympique Lyonnais have played 6 Ligue 1 games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-2-2 (wins-draws-losses).
In their previous game, the manager R. Garcia led his Olympique Lyonnais to a defeat in the Ligue 1 match away at Olympique Marseille. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Groupama Stadium. Before that, Olympique Lyonnais had a Champions League home game versus Benfica which ended with a victory 3-1.
The manager R. Garcia will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Zenit in only four days.
A decent goal production from Olympique Lyonnais in their home games so far, with 9 goals from 6 league matches.
