Preview
Lyon will look to get back to winning ways when they face Angers in an away match on Sunday in the Ligue 1.
Lyon secured a 1-1 draw against Brest in their opening match of the season last week as Cardona’s goal was cancelled out by Slimani’s strike in the second half.
Hence, Lyon need to get back on track after the blip and need the crucial three points.
On the other hand, Angers were successful in their opener as they beat Strasbourg 2-0 on Sunday.
Traore and Bahoken found the back of the net to give Angers the first win of the season.
Angers will aim to continue the good start with another fine performance.
Both sides met in the Ligue 1 last season where Lyon won 3-0 with Depay scoring a brace along with a goal from Brazilian, Lucas Paquetá.
