Lyon enjoyed superiority in term of possession and attacking plays at L'Abbé-Deschamps, but were unable to break Auxerre down. The result would have worried Claude Le Puel a bit, and critics are starting to pull their knives out slowly but steadily, questioning Lyon’s supposed invincibility. Les Gones cannot afford another stutter at Sochaux, and should they not come out with three points, the away game excuse may not go down well with the fans. Remy Vercoutre played in goal instead of the sick Hugo Lloris against Auxerre, was lucky to evade punishment for bringing down Dennis Oliech in the previous game. Karim Benzema will spearhead Lyon’s attack again, with the likes of Kader Keita and Juninho giving him support.

For a fairly talented side, Sochaux have struggled this season. They did manage to knock Marseille out of the domestic cup, but Sochaux fans have otherwise had little to cheer for this season. For a side that has the likes of Stephane Dalmat and Mevlut Erdinc, you would expect them to be a little higher up. However they have managed to score in all their home games this season. Barring the season opener against Grenoble, all their home games have ended in draws- against Le Havre, Lille, PSG and Lorient.
