Lille, Recent FormA point gained from their 1-1 draw against Lens in their previous encounter will not be considered a bad outcome for Lille. In that game they had 62% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Lens who had 9 attempts and 1 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Paulo Fonseca will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 11 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 7 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. It's been rare for their fans not to have had something to shout about this season, with their team scoring in 12 out of 13 home games.
They have been performing well at The Decathlon Arena recently and are unbeaten in their last 10 home games.
When it comes to home matches at The Decathlon Arena, Jonathan David will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 5 league goals for Lille in their last 6 home games.
Lyon, Recent FormLast time out for Lyon resulted in a perhaps unsurprising 0-0 draw against Lorient in a match they really wanted to win. They achieved 53% possession in that match and had 17 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Lorient's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
It seems pretty certain that Laurent Blanc will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 9 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 5 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. On their travels, they have made a habit of scoring goals, having found the net in 5 of their last 6 outings away from home.
They have had a strong run of away form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games on the road and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Alexandre Lacazette will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Lyon.
Lille suffered the disappointment of a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Lyon the last time they met in the league.
When playing away from home in the league, Lyon have failed to win any of their last 5 meetings with Lille, with the last 2 of those games ending in a draw.
Alexandre Lacazette has scored in each of Lyon's last league game against Lille.
Lille manager Paulo Fonseca has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Bafodé Diakité (Hamstring), Ismaily Gonçalves dos Santos (Thigh) and Adam Ounas (Thigh) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Laurent Blanc has a number of injury concerns in his Lyon squad to contend with: Jérôme Boateng (Unknown), Malo Gusto (Hamstring), Alexandre Lacazette (Thigh), Anthony Lopes (Broken finger), Thiago Mendes (Groin) and Jefferson Pereira Santos (Unknown)
