THE PREDICTION
Last season’s Champions League semi-finalists Lyon have been hugely disappointing in recent weeks as they are now riding a four-game winless run and coach Rudi Garcia has urged his side to show some improvements here. They entertain a Marseille side who are not enjoying a great spell themselves with late goals rescuing draws against Lille and Metz in their last two games. They have a curiously exceptional away record though, having picked up eight wins and two draws from their last 10 away league games stretching back to last season, and that will give them hope of a result here. Lyon are desperate for points themselves though and that could lead to a rather open, attacking game so Both Teams to Score is the prediction in this clash.
