Red lantern of Ligue 1 with 7 small points on the clock, theAJA
is up against the wall. The Burgundian club absolutely must do a series to give themselves some fresh air before the holidays. A success in a gala match against theOlympique Lyonnais would be foundational for the future. “ I told my players a very simple thing, that they had incredible luck, underlined Christophe Pélissier, reinforced by his management and supported by the public. Because in the position we are in, the public is behind them. There are very, very few clubs where this happens. But it’s not a blank check, we have to maintain it and show on the pitch that we want this club to stay in Ligue 1, because that’s its place. If I have a message to convey to the public, it is that he continues to be behind us again and again. »
In the Lyon ranks, there is no question of underestimating the last one. Paulo Fonseca must face a real massacre and expects a trap in Yonne. “ I think that Auxerre’s position in the rankings is not representative of their quality. They are very offensive with a very vertical game. We have to play this difficult match where we will have to take the initiative to have the ambition to win. They are very fast, you must first of all defend well and then find spaces against a compact block. We will have to be patient with the ball, while remaining focused because they are a very dangerous team on the counter when they win the ball. » The script is written, with a nice contrast of styles in perspective.
The expected compositions
AJA: future.
OL: future.
