We've barely looked at Lyon, who previously had serious problems but have started the season very well. Everyone is focused on PSG performance, but I'm more interested in seeing whether Lyon can maintain their consistent form and try to challenge PSG this season. Lyon's next match will be against Marseille, who were previously defeated by Rennes, who played with only 10 men but managed to beat Marseille. Meanwhile, Marseille secured a win against a newly promoted team. I think Lyon has a good chance of picking up another 3 points in their upcoming match.

Do you believe Lyon will beat Marseille?

Lyon playing home which is an advantage. They got 2/2 victories so far which is another advantage for them. Marseille didn't start well but they managed to play good in the last match.
Lyon - Marseille will not be an easy game and I will go with a draw, maybe 1 - 1.
Lyon playing at home will give them an extra advantage going into this game because I have not been too convinced about the performance of Marseille in their last two games so Lyon making it three over three by winning this game will be a good one again it will even make the league more competitive because it will bring competition to ligue 1 which is lacking so far
I haven't watched Marseille's matches this season, but from the scoreline between Marseille and Paris FC, it seems Marseille has a defensive problem, and that could be the reason why Paris FC was able to find the back of the net twice against Marseille last weekend. So, since Lyon is playing at home and they have won their two matches without conceding any goals from their opponents, and coupled with Marseille's defensive problem, Lyon is at a big advantage of defeating Marseille this weekend.
