Lyon hosts Bordeaux in round 22 of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Friday, January 29th at Parc Olympique Lyonnais (Lyon)
Lyon is playing significantly better in this championship. It has already gained more points than in the last suspended season. The team is in good shape. In the last five matches, the Kids gained three victories and a draw and lost once. The strikers of Lyon are in perfect mood after the away romp of Saint-Etienne (5-0). But the hosts find it difficult to play against teams that have well-built defensive redoubts. They either do not score in matches with these opponents and lose to them or achieve a goal draw. For example, Lyon gained such draws in matches with Rennes (2-2) and Marseille (1-1).

Bordeaux also looks more successful this year. The team occupies the 7th line in the standings and is 4 points behind the European Cup zone. Recently, this club pleased its fans with three victories in a row and scored two times per game on average. Previously, Bordeaux managed to resist clubs similar in level to Lyon (an away victory over Rennes (1-0) and a draw with PSG on its field 2-2). Sometimes the Girondins also failed against them, but at the same time they scored at least once (1 -3 with Marseille and 1-2 with Lille). We expect resistance from the visitors in the upcoming match.
In the last head-to-head meeting, the opponents could not open the scoring, and the fans saw rather boring football. But you shouldn’t pay attention to this, as it happened at the beginning of this season when Lyon and Bordeaux were quite modest in the attack and played flawlessly in defense. But now everything is different. In recent matches, both teams showed good game shape, scoring a lot and often winning. And if you look at the history of their confrontations, you can see that Bordeaux successfully coped with the task of scoring at least one goal. Moreover, the defenders of Lyon began to make more mistakes in January – the team conceded an average of 1.25 goals per game. And the Girondins are not bad in the attack this month. Therefore, I expect a goal from them.
Prediction for the match: Bordeaux to score over 0.5 goals
