The upcoming match between Olympique Lyonnais and Saint-Étienne presents an interesting contrast in terms of defensive performance and goal-scoring capabilities. The visiting team, coached by Olivier Dall’Oglio, has struggled with their defense away from home, while also finding it challenging to score goals on the road. On the other hand, Pierre Sage’s team has a good chance of securing all three points, especially considering their recent form.
Looking at the recent form of both teams, it appears that the home team is favored to come out on top. However, for Olivier Dall’Oglio’s group, facing Olympique Lyonnais on their turf presents a significant challenge. The team coached by Dall’Oglio has historically struggled against Olympique Lyonnais, with the home team having won 4 out of the last 5 meetings between the two sides.
From the goals scored and conceded table, it is evident that the home team has an advantage in terms of offensive output. Despite this, the team coached by Dall’Oglio usually manages to play good football even when playing away from home. In contrast, the home team presents a vulnerable defense, even when playing in front of their own fans.
Given the recent head-to-head matchups between Olympique Lyonnais and Dall’Oglio’s team, we can expect a high-scoring and entertaining game. The previous encounters have resulted in 4 wins for the home team and 1 draw, indicating a strong performance from Olympique Lyonnais.
In terms of goal-scoring averages, the home team has an average of 1.7 goals per game, while Saint-Étienne has an average of 1 goal per game. This suggests that the home team may have a slight edge in terms of offensive firepower.
