Ligue 1 table positions: Marseille - 5, Lyon - 4

Derby match on Sunday in the French Ligue 1 as title chasers Marseille and Lyon go head to head in a bid to lessen the handicap from the leader.

Olympique Marseille has displayed a great form in past matches, managing an impressive 8 game winning streak that makes them favorites in the odds.

They are just one point bellow their current adversaries, Lyon, but no less than 9 separate them from current leaders and trophy favorites PSG.

Lyon is in fine form as well with no less than six victories in their last seven matches played but their defeat away to Montpellier two weeks ago had a great impact on their chances of catching up with PSG.

Already a victory to their name this week as they went past Lorient in the Coupe de La Ligue in extra time but it will be interesting to seen how Lyon will perform away once again especially with the pressure of this derby.

My pick: Marseille to win ( over 2.5 goals )

Quarter finals in the French Coupe de la Ligue on Wednesday with a very exciting fixture as Olympique Lyon hosts OSC Lille for a place in the semi-finals.

Lyon with the advantage of the home pitch for this all important knock out game and a very good form showed in recent games in all competitions.

They went past Saint-Etienne in the previous round, managing a 1-2 victory and they are set to go head to head with one of the favorites for the trophy. With no less than seven victories in their past 8 games played, Lyon shows a great defensive strength coped with a good morale and an appetite for trophies.

Lille managed a comfortable 3-1 victory over Sedan in the previous round but despite placing themselves above Lyon in the Ligue 1 table, they managed only one victory in the past 3 games played.

They still hold a good chance in this battle especially if their defense will hold up in the first half but the disadvantage of the arena and their modest results in latest matches gives them a great disadvantage.

My pick: Lyon to win ( under 2.5 goals )

Group D table positions: Real Madrid - 1, Lyon - 2

Champions League is back with the third round in the Group stage and a classic duel in the competition as Real Madrid welcome Olympique Lyon in Group D.

Real Madrid showing a splendid form in recent matches, managing to win their last 4 played. They are top of this Group D with a maximum of 6 points in 2 played and trailing Barcelona by just one point in the Primera Division.

They defeated Dinamo Zagreb in the opening stage by the slightest of margins only to trash Ajax Amsterdam in the latest with a 3-0 scoreline.

Lyon second in the charts with 4 points gathered in their two games played, a goalless draw away to Ajax and a 2-0 victory at home over outsiders Dinamo Zagreb.

Only one victory in their last 6 matches played away is clearly something to worry, but in the past few years Lyons has become quite an authority in dealing with the mighty Real Madrid.

My pick:  Real Madrid to win ( under 2.5 goals )

Bundesliga table positions: Lyon - 3, Nancy - 20

Round 10 in the French Ligue 1 on Saturday with title chasers Olympique Lyon welcoming last spot holders Nancy in a fixture in which the hosts are clear favorites.

Lyon on the third spot of the Ligue 1 table with a total of 17 points in 9 games played, same as Montpellier and Toulouse but two below current leaders PSG.

They suffered an important defeat in the last round, losing 2-0 away to PSG and allowing their rivals to take the driver’s seat with a strong chance for the trophy after the summer’s investments.

Nancy has failed to win any games in the competition this season, only 5 draws in 9 played for them and negative a goal balance of -4, claiming the last spot of the table, two points below salvation.

With 3 defeats and one draw in away matches this season, it’s hard to see them claiming a positive result against Lyon especially as their morale is very low.

My pick:  Lyon to win ( under 2.5 goals )
