What They're Saying

Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette (via Ligue 1): "I have already had times when I didn't score or scored only a few goals. I know that I am not going to score in every game. I continue training and I will get opportunities. It is up to me to put them away, but I am not doubting my ability."

Stade Reims Jean-Luc Vasseur (via Ligue 1): "What has changed since the start of the season and what has happened in the last seven matches? It's time, to put it simply. Not for us coaches or for the players, we know that a football team needs time, but for you, the media."

Tactical Preview

Player to Watch: Despite a recent dip in form, Lacazette remains Lyon's primary attacking threat. In 15 league appearances, the 23-year-old has 11 goals and four assists.

Lyon's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Lopes; Jallet, B.Koné, Umtiti, Bedimo; Gonalons, Mvuemba, Tolisso, Fekir; Yattara, Lacazette

Stade Reims' Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Placide; Mandi, Tacalfred, Conté, Signorino; Devaux, Bourillon, Fortes, Moukandjo; Charbonnier, Ngog
