LYON vs PARIS SG
Ahead of kick-off, Lyon are unbeaten in five Ligue 1 (L1) home outings (W3, D2), with four of those matches yielding a victorious first half. The four matches in the sequence to see Lyon win the first half were also accompanied by a clean sheet for them at the break. |
Additionally, the hosts were victorious in February’s corresponding H2H fixture, winning 2-1 after a first half drawn 1-1 – for the second L1 H2H here in succession! In turn, each of the last 11 league H2Hs here have separated the teams by a margin of under 1.5 goals. |
The only L1 side to score in every league game on hostile turf last term, PSG fare significantly better at the grounds of other opponents. Notably, they have failed to score in just one of their last 37 top-flight road trips, with three of their last four L1 away victories seeing them win the first half ‘to-nil’. |
Given their recent record at this ground, leading at half-time could be crucial for PSG. Indeed, three of PSG’s last four L1 away H2Hs with Lyon to produce a half-time leader has seen said leader emerge victorious, but without winning the second half. |
Players to watch: Lyon talisman Memphis Depay has netted five times across Lyon’s last three home league wins. Three of that quintet have arrived in the ten minutes either side of half-time. |
Two of PSG’s last three away victories to yield a winning first-half clean sheet saw Ángel Di Maria score within the 15 minutes immediately after the break. |
Stat attack: The period beyond the hour mark has seen Lyon drop a net total of four points across their last two league games. |
PSG’s last four L1 defeats at Lyon saw the first half outscore the second. |
Just one of the last 22 halves of L1 H2H football played at Lyon has ended separating the teams by 2+ goals. |
