France League 1 match preview: Montpellier - O.Lyon

In big problems

Possible starting line up: Jourden, Bedimo, Hilton, Yanga-Mbiwa, Bocaly, Marveaux, Estrada, Cabella, Utaka, Dernis, Giroud. Montpellier coach Rene Girard is in big problems before this important match. Four players are on international duties, three of them very important. The midfielders Younes Belhanda (17 games, 5 goals) and Jamel Saihi (played 18 games) are hard to be replaced, just as the striker Souleymane Camara (17 games, 5 goals). Montpellier have played 19 games in League 1, so You realized how important they are. Maybe the defender Abdelhamid El-Kaoutari is not that important, but his absence is also a handicap.

In good form

Possible starting line up: Lloris, Dabo, Umtiti, Gonalons, Cissokho, Kallstrom, Fofana, Briand, Gourcuff, Bastos, Lisandro Lopez. Lyon is in good form at the moment. At Wednesday they won 2:1 against Lille in League cup, while before that won 3:1 against low division Lyon-Duchère AS. For this match coach Remi Garde will be without Anthony Reveillere, Dejan Lovren and Cris. Still, I believe that will not be a big problem as they are no new injury victims and the team are used to play without them.

Lyon should win

I see a great chance for Lyon. The absence of the African players in Montpellier will affect the coach Rene Girard, specially in the midfield. I see no adequate replacement for Younes Belhanda and Jamel Saihi, just as for Souleymane Camara in the attack. But there is another reason for my pick. Lyon is dominant against Montpellier in the last period. Lyon have won the last four consecutive games which make them favorites here. And I believe they are able to win.
