Olympique Lyonnais to Maintain 100% Start to the Season at Stade de Reims
Stade Reims vs Lyon - 28/08/2022
2525
We have several fixtures to look forward to in the French Ligue 1 on the 28th of August including the meeting between Stade de Reims and Olympique Lyonnais.
The match will be played at the Stade Auguste-Delaune II and the hosts begin the weekend in 19th place on 1 point having played 3 matches while the visitors are in 4th place on 6 points from 2 games played.
Stade de Reims come into the match having picked up their first point of the season in a 1-1 draw at Strasbourg last weekend.
Having fallen behind on the stroke of half time, Stade de Reims kept going in the second half and scored the equaliser with only 9 minutes remaining on the clock.
However, it is has been a poor start to the 2022/23 campaign for Stade de Reims and they began the season with a 4-1 loss at Marseille.
That was compounded by a 4-2 defeat at home by Clermont. Stade de Reims took a 2-0 lead in that game only to concede 4 goals in the second half having had a man sent off.
Trends show Stade Reims's performance has been disappointing of late, as they have won just 1 of their 9 most recent home Ligue 1 clashes.
In fact, they have lost each of their last 4 home Ligue 1 games and have seen both teams score in each of their last 7 league fixtures.
Olympique Lyonnais make the trip to the Stade Auguste-Delaune II on the back of a 4-1 home victory over Troyes last weekend.
With the score 1-1 at half time, Olympique Lyonnais produced a strong second half performance, scoring 3 goals without reply to take maximum points.
That was the second successive victory for Olympique Lyonnais in Ligue 1 this season following the 2-1 home win over Ajaccio on the opening day of the season.
Olympique Lyonnais were 2-0 up after only 22 minutes but had their goalkeeper sent off 5 minutes later. Ajaccio took advantage of the extra man to score but had a player dismissed just before half time.
Trends show Olympique Lyonnais have managed to win their last 4 games in Ligue 1. They are undefeated in 6 of their last 7 league matches and have seen both teams score in 4 of their last 5 Ligue fixtures on the road.
Looking ahead to the team news and Stade de Reims are without the injured duo of Rafik Guitane and Anastasios Donis. They also have doubts over the fitness of defender Thomas Foket.
Olympique Lyonnais travel without the injured quartet of Julian Pollersbeck, Jérome Boateng, Sinaly Diomande, and Moussa Dembele. Goalkeeper, Anthony Lopes, serves the final game of his suspension.
This match should see goals and we expect to see both teams find the back of the net. Olympique Lyonnais are currently on a good run of form including the back end of last season and could continue their 100% start to this season with a narrow win.
