Match preview
Lyon and Lorient are set to clash at the Groupama Stadium with Laurent Blanc’s men sitting on a two-game winning run with Lorient continuing to plummet down the league table and forfeit their hopes of European football.
After impressing over the past season and a half, Lorient are coming into this game with another defeat and now eighth in the table. Nevertheless, they still sit above Lyon in the table by one place.
Auxerre beat them 1-0 at home last time out, and with Lyon winning last weekend, the club are coming into this one just one point ahead of Blanc’s side with both teams winning 11 games. Lorient have also scored one less goal, while Lyon have conceded fewer goals.
Lyon edged past Grenoble Foot in the quarter-finals of the French Cup last time out, as Bradley Barcola and Jeffinho scored a goal each.
Lorient’s last win only came two weeks ago, as they smashed Ajaccio 3-0, although they are out of the French Cup after a defeat to Lens on penalties.
