Angers, currently 14th with 13 points, is having a difficult first part of the year but is showing signs of improvement, having won three of its last five matches. After a 1-0 victory against Le Havre last week, the Angevins will seek to confirm this dynamic, particularly at home, where they have however often suffered this season. Their defensive shortcomings could be a weak point against an in-form Lyon team.
Lyon wants to continue its rise
Lyon, 5th with 22 points, is unbeaten in eight Ligue 1 games and aims to stay in the race for European places. Led by Alexandre Lacazette in great form, who recently scored a hat-trick, the Lyon team will have to manage a busy schedule, with an important Europa League match scheduled for next Thursday. Lyon historically dominates confrontations against Angers, having lost only once in 14 meetings since 2021.
This match therefore opposes an Angers team seeking stability and a Lyon team seeking to maintain its positive momentum to establish itself in the race for the top of the table.
