Can Lille win at home against an in-form Lyon?
Lille OSC vs Lyon - 10/03/2023

Lille’s Jonathan David is battling Paris Saint-Germain's Kylian Mbappe for the Ligue 1 Golden Boot award. The Canadian striker has 16 goals and accounted for 35% of Lille’s goalscoring in Ligue 1 this season. He is just two goals behind the French World Cup winner.
On Friday night, David will lead Lille up against Lyon, as Les Dogues aim for a third straight match without a defeat. Lille are sixth in the Ligue 1 standings and just six points off third place, which is the Champions League playoff qualification spot.
A win would put pressure on the teams ahead of them in the table. Lyon are also looking for a third straight match without a defeat, so getting all three points on Friday night won’t be easy for Les Dogues.
Lyon are 10th in the standings and are unbeaten in six straight matches in Ligue 1. Les Gones’ poor start to the campaign and at times, inconsistent form has them midtable and set to miss out on Europe once more.
Manager Laurent Blanc has Lyon in good form despite their position in midtable. Lyon picked up 11 points from the last 18 points on offer in the league, scoring nine goals and conceding five times. Lyon have improved on the road and are unbeaten in five of the last six away fixtures.
Lille also took 11 points from the last 18 points on offer in Ligue 1. The team scored 11 times and conceded seven goals across the last six games.
Les Dogues are one of Ligue 1’s strongest home sides. They have a record of 8W-3D-2L in 13 matches at home and scored 25 goals while giving away 18. Lille are unbeaten in 14 of their last 15 home matches.
Friday’s match will be the third of the campaign between Lille and Lyon. Lyon are unbeaten against Lille this season, as they claimed a 1-0 win at the Groupama Stadium in Ligue 1 thanks to an Alexandre Lacazette goal.
The teams played in the Coupe de France at the Groupama Stadium in February, with the game ending 2-2 at full-time. Lyon won the tie on penalty kicks.
The teams divided the last six matches into two wins, two draws, and two defeats apiece. Lille’s strong home record should help them on Friday night despite failing to defeat Lyon twice already this season. Les Dogues are unbeaten in their last two home matches versus Lyon.
Friday’s match should see Lille edge Lyon 2-1 at full-time. The win will end Les Dogues’ 2022-23 winless streak against Les Gones.
