Lyon, Recent FormLyon will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 3-1 home win against Monaco. They achieved 62% possession in that match and had 23 strikes at goal, with 11 hitting the target, up against Monaco's tally of 15 efforts at goal, 9 of which were on target.
With 14 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, their manager Laurent Blanc will be very pleased with his team's form going forward, but he will be casting a cautious eye over his defence, who have shipped 11 goals in the same period. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 10 games in a row, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
When home matches come round at Groupama Stadium, Alexandre Lacazette will feel confident of adding more goals to his tally of 9 goals in Lyon's last 6 home league matches.
Reims, Recent FormReims manager Will Still will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against Angers. In that game they had 57% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Angers who had 7 attempts and 3 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 4, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 10 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
Results have been poor for Reims recently, with 4 losses and only 1 win from their last 6 league games their current form is not going to help them move up the table. They've had an unusually high number of draws when playing away from home this season, with 9 draws in 18 away league games.
On an individual basis, Folarin Balogun will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 20 goals in Reims' 36 league games this season.
In the previous encounter between these sides, both teams grabbed goals, with the match finishing in a 1-1 draw.
Away from home, Les rouges et blancs have shipped at least one goal to Lyon in each of their previous 5 league matches against them.
It has been a share of the points the last 2 times these sides have met in the league, with the game ending in a draw on both occasions; that said, Reims may be feeling slightly more positive, having built up a run of 4 matches undefeated against their opponents.
Alexandre Lacazette will be feeling confident of netting goals for Lyon in this one against Reims with his scoring record of 3 goals in their last 5 meetings in the league.
There is only really one injury concern for the Lyon manager Laurent Blanc ahead of this clash, with Dejan Lovren (Thigh) missing out, which gives Blanc a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
With Thibault De Smet (Muscle) and Kamory Doumbia (Muscle) both unavailable and Mitchell van Bergen (Broken wrist) being out for the rest of the season, Reims manager Will Still will be glad to have no other major fitness concerns going into this tie.
