This season there looks like there could be a genuine title race in Ligue One. One of the teams currently in that fight for the French title, Lyon, head to face Stade Brestois On Friday night looking to move to the top of the table, temporarily at least.
The game looks like a good chance for OL to get back to winning ways after a surprise 2-1 home defeat against Montpellier in their last league outing. Despite the defeat, Rudi Garcia’s team are just three points behind league leaders Lille, with superior goal difference to their rivals at the top of the table.
The defeat last time out ended a four-game winning run in Ligue One for Lyon. However, even with the defeat, the home side will be happy with their current position in the French top-flight.
Lyon have been strong on their travels of late in Ligue One, as they are unbeaten in ten away games in the French top-flight, recording seven wins in the process.
The home team are currently 12th place in the French top-flight table after a mixed season. They head into this clash on the back of a three-game unbeaten run.
However, a record of one win in their last seven league outings is not a great one. The recent inconsistent form means that Brest are now seven points adrift of the European spots in Ligue One.
A goalless draw against league leaders Lille in their last league game was a respectable result and also saw Olivier Dall’Oglio’s team keep a first clean sheet in seven Ligue One matches.
Although Brest’s recent home record has been inconsistent, they have still managed to record wins in five of their last eight league matches on home soil.
Forebet predicts that Lyon will record a victory in a high-scoring game to move to the top of the French top-flight table.
