This could be an interesting match as Olympique Lyonnais have their presumed home advantage while Strasbourg are ahead 3 points in the Ligue 1 table.
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Coupe de France. This match was also played here at Groupama Stadium. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Strasbourg have had more rest.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day.
