Dijon come up to the away fight with two-match unlucky streak, having lost to Caen 1:2 and St Etienne 0:1. The start of the season cannot be named successful for Olivier Dall'Oglio’s team as it managed to pick up only four points with 6-13 goal difference in six encounters and, as a result, the club occupies the 18th place in the Ligue 1 standings. Taking into consideration last season, Dijon have been failing to win across 12 consecutive clashes, having earned four draws and eight losses in them.
Lyon and Dijon met four times in their history resulting in three victories of Olympique and one Dijon’s triumph. Bearing in mind the teams’ results in this season in the Ligue 1 in a whole as well as in the home/away battles in particular, there are no doubts in the hosts’ lopsided victory in the Saturday fight.
Prediction for the match: Lyon to win with -1.0 Asian handicap.
