They last met in May, the game being won by Lyon 2-1.

Lyon Form

Lyon had disastrous start to the new Ligue 1 season, suffering a convincing 3-0 loss in the opening match at Rennes. The outcome was similar last weekend at home against Monaco, losing 2-0.

Pierre Sage’s side had 1.64 expected goals, 52% possession and 16 shots against Rennes but failed to find the net. They were not as creative or dangerous against Monaco, having 0.44 expected goals, 32% possession and just two shots.

Les Gones finished the previous season in 6th place in Ligue 1 with 53 points from 34 matches and qualified for Europa League group stages.

Lyon Injuries & Team News

Ernest Nuamah suffered an injury last week against Monaco and will most likely be replaced by a summer signing Georges Mikautadze.

Left back Nicolas Tagliafico is injured.

Strasbourg Form

Strasbourg started the new Ligue 1 season with a 1-1 draw against Montpellier away from home, Hamadou Diarra breaking the deadlock in the 58th minute but they conceded an equalizer ten minutes later.

Le Racing earned their first victory last weekend in front of the home crowd by beating Rennes 3-1, Andrey Santos breaking the deadlock in 23rd minute, Emanuel Emegha doubling the lead early into the second half. Three points were sealed with Christopher Wooh’s own goal a couple of minutes before the final whistle.

Strasbourg finished the previous campaign in 13th place with 39 points, ten points above the playout position.

Verdict

Lyon v Strasbourg

Lyon lost both games this season, failing to score a single goal. Their last pre-season test was also bad, losing to Arsenal 2-0, so I see value in backing in-form Strasbourg to win at least one point on Friday.
