Lyon hoping to remain in European qualfiying places.
Lyon aim to mark their historic 2400th Ligue 1 match with a victory over visiting Strasbourg, who are eager to repeat past upsets at Groupama Stadium, as both teams close out their season with distinct aspirations.
Olympique Lyonnais
Lyon extended their winning streak in the league to three games with a 1-0 victory against Clermont Foot. Orel Mangala’s strike early in the second half secured all three points for Lyon.
Pierre Sage’s side currently sits in 7th place in the league table with 50 points. They are level with 6th-placed Lens, who edge ahead due to superior goal difference.
Since Sage took over in early December, Lyon has gathered 43 points in Ligue 1, more than any other team in the league during this period. Lyon will be playing their 2400th match in Ligue 1, becoming the sixth team to achieve this milestone.
Les Gones are keen to finish the season with a win to potentially leapfrog Lens, who face Montpellier on Saturday. In his pre-match press conference, Pierre Sage emphasized the importance of clinching European Cup qualification.
Lyon welcomes Strasbourg, aiming for a win as they reach this significant landmark. Strasbourg has struggled in recent final-day games, losing three of their last four matches.
Sage is expected to stick with the familiar 4-3-3 formation, featuring Ernest Nuamah, Alexandre Lacazette, and Saïd Benrahma in attack.
Strasbourg
Strasbourg are coming off a thrilling 2-1 comeback win against Metz, bringing their three-game losing streak to an end. Goals from Emanuel Emegha in the 89th minute and Andrey Santos in stoppage time turned the tide after they fell behind to Georges Mikautadze's goal early in the second half.
Les Coureurs currently sit in 13th place with 39 points, marking them as mathematically safe from relegation. They look to draw inspiration from recent positive results against Lyon, having won two of their last three league encounters.
Strasbourg hope for a repeat performance at the Groupama Stadium, aiming for consecutive away league wins against Lyon for the first time since 1979. Patrick Vieira might set up his team in a 3-4-2-1 formation, with Emanuel Emegha leading the attack.
The team will, however, be missing up to four players, including Lebo Mothiba, for this weekend’s fixture.
