Olympique Lyonnais form and stats

The Ligue 1 season is young and Olympique Lyonnais have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far.

Tolisso was the last player to score for the away team. Lyon haven't scored a league goal in the last 196 minutes.

Olympique Lyonnais play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-1 to Brest (placed 1st). Olympique Lyonnais goalkeeper Lopes enjoyed a terrific day versus Brest, but despite achieving ten saves the defeat could not be stopped.
