Goal Statistics

Lyon have been reliable in attack of late, scoring in 7 consecutive Ligue 1 matches. Their PG of 1.6 against Paris FC on Sunday suggests they're likely to extend that run.

With a PG of just 0.9, Paris FC look set to struggle here. Add in the fact that Lyon haven't conceded a goal in 3 consecutive Ligue 1 matches, and it could be a long evening for S. Gilli's men.
