The Lyon-Dunkerque derby is one of the most anticipated fixtures in French football this season. With Ligue 1 leaders Lyon set to take on bottom-of-the-table Reims, it's no surprise that the match promises to be intense. Lyon, currently holding a two-point lead in the table, will look to extend their unbeaten run to three matches when they face Reims at the Stade de Reims. The match has been marred by controversy, with referee Michel Simeone having received a red card during a heated exchange between his team and the opposition's. In a bid to secure victory for their side, Lyon have brought in several players from other teams, including Thiago Motta, who was previously loaned out to Marseille last season. However, he is expected to miss the game due to a knee injury. Reims, meanwhile, have struggled to find their rhythm this season, but have shown signs of improvement with the arrival of new signing Nabil Fekir. His arrival has given them some much-needed depth up front, but there are concerns about the quality of the players they bring in. It remains to be seen how both teams perform on the pitch today. It's possible that either team could emerge victorious, or both sides may struggle to come away with any points. Overall, the Lyon-Dunkerque derby is sure to be a thrilling fixture to watch, with both teams looking to make history and push each other to their limits. Only time will tell which team will emerge as the victor. |
