Contrasting starts to the season
Luis Enrique’s PSG endured a difficult opening to their Ligue 1 campaign, collecting two draws and suffering one defeat across their first three matches.
Since then, however, the Paris club have responded strongly. They go into Monday’s fixture on a run of four successive league victories.
Lyon’s confidence is also high after their 2-1 away win against OGC Nice in the previous round. That result lifted Olympique Lyonnais into first place in the standings.
Their main strength this season has been their collective contribution in attack. Lyon are not relying on one leading scorer, with 10 different players already having found the net in Ligue 1.
Head-to-head record
Across 113 meetings in all competitions, PSG have the better overall record. Paris Saint-Germain have won 52 times, while Olympique Lyonnais have recorded 35 victories. The sides have drawn 26 matches.
The form of both teams points to a closely contested encounter. PSG will have home advantage at the Parc des Princes, but Lyon have travelled well and have shown they can compete against the leading sides.
With both attacks producing regularly, and Lyon’s goals spread among 10 different scorers, the match is expected to feature goals from both teams. The prediction is for an entertaining draw.
