Lyon are just outside the Ligue One European spots, as they prepare for a home clash with struggling Amiens on Wednesday evening.

OL are currently sixth-place in the Ligue One table, just two points adrift of Lille who are currently in the final European berth in the French top-flight.

Rudi Garcia’s team have been in inconsistent form of late in Ligue One. However, a 2-1 defeat at Nice last time out in the French top-flight ended a mini three-game unbeaten run in the league for the home team.

The defeat against Nice followed a trend of high scoring league games of late for the home side in Ligue One, as eight of their previous 11 Ligue One matches have produced over 2.5 goals.

A big factor in those high scoring games has been the form of attacking pair Moussa Dembele and Memphis Depay, who have scored 12 and 9 goals respectively in Ligue One this season.

Lyon have struggled for consistency of late at the Groupama Stadium, as OL have won just three of their last nine home games in the French top-flight.

Amiens are in relegation peril this season, as the visitors are in the relegation play-off spot in Ligue One. In fact, they are now five points away from the safety of 17th place in the table.

A goalless draw with Toulouse last time out means that the visitors have failed to win in ten matches in the French top-flight, suffering seven defeats in the process.

The visitors are poor travellers too, as a record of one away win in 21 league games illustrates. To make matters worse Amiens has lost their last five away matches in the French top-flight while conceding at least twice in all five defeats.

Forebet predicts that Lyon will cruise to three points in a high-scoring encounter to plunge Amiens into even bigger trouble at the bottom of the table.
