There will be fireworks when Olympique Lyon and PSG face each other in the Ligue 1 derby on Sunday night. Les Gones have gone on without Lucas Paqueta, who joined West Ham United, and the Brazilian superstar has been sorely missed in recent weeks. 

As Lyon failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Lorient (1-3) and Monaco (1-2), we weren’t tempted to put our money on the underdogs. Goalkeepers Julian Pollersbeck and Jerome Boateng should be the only ones missing from the home team.

Les Parisiens, on the other hand, aim to finish their work in Ligue 1 as soon as possible. Leo Messi and Co. lead the domestic trophy hunt, but seeing Olympique Marseille run out of steam, we believe the reigning champions will take advantage of Lyon’s current form. All Keylor Navas, Presnel Kimpembe, and Renato Sanches are sidelined through injury for the visitors.
