Marseille had to leave Nantes with a share of the spoils after the contest ended in 1-1 stalemate. After an uneventful first half, Nantes grabbed the lead five minutes into the second half courtesy of a Ludovic Blas's goal - capitalizing on a goalkeeping error. But Marseille equalized via Dimitri Payet's finish on the 69th minute. Although Marseille pressured their hosts as the clock wound down, it yielded nothing more than a point.Having collected a total of 38 points from 25 league games, Le Phoceens are currently sitting in 7th-place on the league standings. They are 14 points adrift 4th-placed Monaco which is their least shot at continental football next season.
Jorge Sampaoli's side have had troubles from a turbulent period that saw them go winless in seven consecutive league games. However, they seem to be resurgent after their 3-2 win against Nice last week, and it is being speculated that they have a point to prove in this fixture.
Lyon's last outing saw them return to winning ways in a five-goal thriller against Brest. Lyon opened scoring through Lucas Paqueta, and they soon doubled their lead, all thanks to Houssem Aouar. On the cusp of halftime, Depay converted from the spot to send Les Gones three goals up before break. After restart, the hosts pulled two goals back, but Lyon kept a cool head as they saw the match off.
Lyon have been particularly impressive in the Ligue 1 this term, sitting three points adrift leaders Lille. Having accrued an incredible total of 55 points from 26 league games, they continue to stake a claim for the title this campaign.
Rudi Garcia's charges are in an imperious league form, winning five of their last six matches in the top flight. However, the French coach will be concerned by the rate at which his side are letting in goals at the back in recent matches, as they cannot afford to slip up at this stage of the title race.
The reverse fixture between the two sides ended in 1-1 stalemate last October. It is worth nothing that Lyon squandered many goalscoring opportunities in that clash, but they will be aware of the need to be more clinical this time around.
