Lyon played out a goalless draw with last-placed Auxerre in their last league outing, with goalkeeper Dominik Greif saving a penalty in the first half to ensure Les Gones secured a point. However, they returned to winning ways in emphatic fashion on Thursday as they thrashed Israeli outfit Maccabi Tel Aviv 6-0 in the UEFA Europa League, with captain Corentin Tolisso scoring a superb hat-trick.

Nantes have struggled to impress this season and appear headed for another relegation battle. They played out a 1-1 draw with Lorient last time out, with Chidozie Awaziem scoring an own goal late in the first half to give their opponents the lead before the Nigerian defender redeemed himself in the second, heading home his maiden goal for the club to ensure the spoils were shared.

The visitors sit 15th in the table with 11 points and will be keen to add to that tally on Sunday.

Olympique Lyonnais vs Nantes Prediction

Les Gones will be buoyed by their dominant continental win during the week and will be eager to carry that momentum into Sunday's game. However, they have lost two of their last three home league matches and will need to guard against complacency if they are to win this one.

Les Canaris, meanwhile, are on a four-game winless run and have won just one of their last 10. They enter the weekend clash as heavy underdogs and will need something special to avoid defeat here.
