Olympique Lyonnais travels to Montpellier this Sunday for the 21st day of Ligue 1 (5:05 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this match.
After an almost perfect week, Olympique Lyonnais hopes to make it three to confirm its revival. The Rhone club travels to Montpellier to continue its series of victories started against Olympique de Marseille (1-0) and Lille (2-1). A match that OL are approaching with a little taste of revenge since the MHSC came to shower Groupama Stadium during the first leg.
“ We have just had two victories in different conditions to those we have experienced before. The idea is to do a third in a week to make it three. It will give our season a good boost and allow us to prepare for the future with peace of mind. They are a team that attacks quickly and shoots a lot on goal efficiently. We must restore our image compared to the first leg. You should not be beaten twice by the same opponent. The match is as important for them as for us, they want to redeem themselves from the dynamics and recent events. I am not surprised that Michel Der Zakarian would like to react to recent events. Just like us, they need points and they will show the values that the Montpellier club represents. They are not going to give up and they are going to fight on the pitch. We must press and show that we are present to swing the psychological aspect of the match to our side. ” The stage is set.
