Command Analysis

Lyon

Current form
In the last two matches, Lyon lost, and the defeats were with a "dry" score. First, the "children" were knocked out by Arsenal in the Emirates Cup (0:2), and in the first round, they were unable to do anything against Rennes away (0:3). It feels like the story of a year ago is repeating itself. Let us recall that in the first month and a half of last season, Lyon was among the outsiders. It was then that Pierre Sazh was invited, who was able to lead the team out of the crisis. At the beginning of this season, something went wrong again.

Monaco

Current form
In the first round against Saint-Etienne, Monaco had a tough time. The Greens counterattacked dangerously and even managed to score once, but after reviewing the VAR, the goal was cancelled. The Monegasques scored a quick goal, but then significantly slowed down the pace of the game and it seemed like they were playing to hold on to the score. In principle, they achieved their goal, and nothing more was needed. After the first round, the visitors are in the top six, but this result clearly does not suit the vice-champions.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mazeki and Golovin will not take part in the match due to injuries.
