This week Amiens takes it twice in his own stadium against Olympique Lyonnais. Can the team of Christophe Pélissier win the fear gegner for the first time in history?
Amiens:
Amiens had a tough start in 2019 with first game against Angers and then matches against Paris Saint-Germain and Lille. Against Angers, Christophe Pélissier’s team was still the parent, but in spite of that, the game ended in a goalless draw. In the games afterwards against PSG and Lille, the numbers one and two of the Ligue 1 Amiens then had little to bring in, so the team this year has only one point collected and in the competition just a shabby point above the relegation stripe back to find.
With Olympique Lyonnais, the number three of the Ligue 1, Les Licornes still face a tough opponent in barely two weeks. Earlier this season, Olympique Lyonnais lost 2-0 and 3-2, just like in most games against top teams this season. Of the current top three in Ligue 1 this season was lost six times in six games, so in that respect there seems to be little perspective for this match for Amiens, which is in any case doing a bad series with only one point out of the game. last five home games in the league.
Olympique Lyonnais:
In mid-December, Olympique Lyonnais won big over AS Monaco in the league, but then three draws were won in three league games against Montpellier, Stade Reims and Toulouse. Last weekend a victory was finally booked and that against arch-rival AS Saint-Étienne. In the first half Bruno Génésio’s team was still trailing 1-0, but in the second half the team from Lyon put things in order by goals from Nabil Fekir and deep in injury time Moussa Dembélé. By the tenth victory of the season, OL is in a neat third place in the league and in addition, the gap to the number two, Lille, is only three points.
So far, Olympique Lyonnais can speak of a successful season. The goal of the team of Génésio was a place in the top three and the survival of the group stage of the Champions League and both succeeded. Although there is little prospect of a tangible prize at the end of this season, in the Champions League, the team faces a tough opponent with FC Barcelona and in the league the gap at Paris Saint-Germain, which played two games less, already sixteen points. Nevertheless, the consolation prize is already winning, because the arch rival was defeated twice this season.
PREDICTION: Both teams to score / YES @ 1.80
