Second from bottom side Dijon will host second placed Olympique Lyon in the 23rd round of matches in the French Ligue 1. Dijon have so far managed 15 points and are three points below the safety zone. Lyon meanwhile, have 46 points, two below leaders Lille. The hosts are winless in their last five matches and have only won two or their 22 outings this season. The two wins have come in Ligue 1 and leave Dijon as the team with the least victories in the league. They’ve only beaten struggling Nimes and Nice. Low returns have also come from their attack, the team scoring just 15 goals in the league, which make them the poorest scorers. Dijon have failed to score in six of their last 10 matches but have somehow managed to keep scores low even when losing. In the last 10 matches, they have conceded more than one goal in only two.

Lyon have stabilized well after the shock home loss to Metz and they’ve won the last two matches. A lethal attack has carried the team for most of the season, with three forwards scoring 30 of the team’s 46 Ligue 1 goals. The team has scored 12 times in the last five games and only failed to hit the net in the loss to Metz. With a defence that has kept just one clean sheet in the last five matches, Lyon will be hoping for a better output when they face one of the weakest sides in the league. Their latest win, 2-1 over Bordeaux handed them a third win in five matches and it is even better away from home. Lyon are unbeaten in their last nine away matches, winning six of them. Head to head with Dijon, the visitors have three wins and one loss in the last five.
