Olympique Lyonnais was second in the French League One in scoring last year with 81 goals in 38 matches. But they let star forward Memphis Depay leave and the offense is paying a heavy price, scoring and allowing 26 goals in 18 matches. They've dropped to 13th in the standings. Olympique Lyonnais is more defensive-oriented, coming off four straight DRAWS by scores of 1-1, 2-2, 0-0, and 1-1. They have home field and have surrendered 7 goals in nine home contests with three shutouts. Top-ranked Paris Saint Germain can play any style, with a defense that has allowed 17 goals in 19 matches, tied for the second-fewest. Host Olympique Lyonnais will focus on defense and a slow pace as midfielder Jeff Reine-Adelaide is out with an injury while striker Tino Kadewere and forwards Karl Toko Ekambi and Islam Slimani have all departed to play in the Africa Cup of Nations tournament for their countries. Play Olympique Lyonnais/Paris Saint Germain UNDER the total.
