Lyon put down in Saint-Erienne

Reims are undefeated in seven matches, and they will try to spoil all plans to their former coach Fournier

Lyon's streak of ten matches without a loss was very roughly interrupted in a local derby in Saint-Etienne. The green ones pressed them from the start and earned their win, although the 0-3 difference may be a bit too high.

Coach Fournier will have to try and fix things against his Reims. In the last league away match last August he led them to a big victory of 1-0.

- They haven't changed a lot, they kept 90% of their team. They have a quality we mustn't underestimate. They're in great shape since the more experienced players returned: their defense is practically rock solid, and in the offense they have the dangerous Moukandjo - he commented on his former team.

He also especially warned of the aggressive approach with which ASSE ruined their balance, but also Bastia a week earlier (0-0). On home turf that shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Three longer absent midfielders are still not ready to return, and stopper Bisevac will also miss out the match because of the card. We are to expect a more offensive variable, with Fekir behind two forwards. The first scorer of the league Lacazette could be in a good enough mood to prove himself after a missed penalty kick.

The away team managed to pass the offense exam president Caillot made them take, and beat Bastia with 2-1. They have been undefeated in seven matches so far, and the 22 won points in 15 rounds is their best score in the last 50 years.

They're in a three-strike series of no easy away matches: Nantes, Monaco and Nice. They managed to pull a draw out of each three, and the same thing tonight would also completely fill out their ambitions.

- Bravery and determination will be the key. The longer we keep ourselves in the match, Lyon will doubt themselves more - stressed out coach Vasseur who has no changes in his line-up. All of his most important players are available.
