Lyon: news and form

OL have had a very disappointing season in Ligue 1 so far: with only 28 points on the clock, Peter Bosz’s players are very close to their ambitions and have only won 7 games this season, for already 8 draws and 5 defeats, to which are added the withdrawal of a point after the incidents against Marseille. If the results are much more satisfactory in the Europa League, the Dutch coach is already in the hot seat and his team will have to achieve a much better 2nd part of the season to hope to grab a European place. Remaining on a sluggish victory against Troyes (0-1), which ended a series of 4 consecutive draws, OL must continue, but will have to be both more effective in attack, while the Lyonnais have conceded 28 goals this season, but also less feverish in defense: with 27 goals conceded this season, Les Gones are far from the standards expected of a club of their stature.

Saint-Etienne: current events and form

The Saint-Etienne balance sheet is even more complicated: last in Ligue 1 with 12 points and 5 units from Troyes, 17th and first non-relegation, the Greens are off to a bad start to ensure their maintenance and must now hope to achieve an end to the season in a ball of cannon. Remaining on 6 consecutive defeats, the latest against Lens (1-2), ASSE does not succeed and sees its competitors gradually moving away in the race to maintain. Blame it no doubt on a struggling defense having already conceded 42 goals in 20 games, the 2nd total in Ligue 1, but above all on an attack at half mast, since Saint-Etienne has only scored 18 goals this season and has not has shaken the net only once in his last 6 games. It will therefore be necessary to present a completely different face this Thursday at Groupama Stadium to hope to interrupt this series of defeats and finally start again.
