FC Nantes vs. Olympique Lyon: lineups , predictions and Live Stream

The match between FC Nantes and Olympique Lyon is poised to be a significant encounter in Ligue 1, particularly for Nantes, who find themselves struggling in the league. Currently positioned 15th, Nantes has not secured a victory in their last 15 matches, marking them as one of the teams with the poorest home records . This dire situation places immense pressure on the team as they face a formidable opponent in Lyon, who are currently vying for European qualification from their 6th place standing.

Head coach Antoine Kombouare has been under pressure in the past weeks as his team Nantes is in disarray in the league standings. 

Kombouare's men are tied on points with St. Etienne occupying the relegation play-off spot. This is the same team they failed to defeat in their recent outing playing out a 1-1 draw on the road.

La Maison Jaune found it difficult to secure wins as that draw stretched their winless run in the league to four matches (D3, L1), during which they dropped points from winning a position on two occasions.

Lyon was held to a frustrating goalless draw against Istanbul giants Fenerbahce in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday. Despite the result, the team earned qualification to the knockout stages. 

Nantes possible starting lineup: Lopes; Cozza, Castelletto, Pallois, Amian; Augusto, Chirivella, Guirassy, Lepenant, Simon; Abline

Lyon possible starting lineup: Perri; Tagliafico, Niakhate, Mata, Kumbedi; Tolisso, Matic, Veretout; Fofana, Lacazette, Benrahma

Nantes has grown fond of draws, and the "Canaries" have every chance to earn another point. A fairly strong team is coming to "Beaujoire," but they are currently in a completely disassembled state. Lyon hasn't won for a while, and even their narrow victory over Montpellier (1:0) is hard to call a success. 

While specific lineups remain undisclosed for this fixture, it is anticipated that Lyon will field a strong team to capitalize on Nantes' vulnerabilities. Historical performance suggests that Lyon holds an advantage; predictions indicate a likely score of 2-1 in favor of Lyon . As fans eagerly await kickoff, live streaming options will be crucial for those unable to attend the match in person. Overall, this encounter could prove pivotal for both teams’ aspirations within Ligue 1.
