Prediction: 1-1
Lyon
Sunday’s football game between Nantes and Olympique Lyon will bring down the curtain on the Ligue 1 round 28. Les Canaris did well to put an end to their three-game losing run at the weekend, with the team beating Nice on the road and, no doubt, the triumph gave them a confidence boost. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but both Moses Simon and Bastien Meupiyou remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Les Gones, on the other hand, are stuck in the middle of the table with 35 points on their account. Lyon, though, have been producing fine showings in Ligue 1 ever since the club chiefs reinforced the squad and we are positive that they will grab one point from the Stade de la Beaujoire clash. Defender Adryelson continues to miss out with injury, but the 26-year-old should be the only absentee in the visiting team.

Said Benrahma is an Algeria international who started his club career at Nice. The pacey winger made his Ligue 1 debut during the 2013/2014 season and after scoring 3 goals in 17 appearances for les Aiglons in the French top flight, he moved to the Championship team Brentford in the summer of 2018.
Said Benrahma was born in Ain Temouchent, Algeria on August 10, 1995 and it has to be noted that he played for the likes of Angers, Gazelec Ajaccio and Chateauroux on loan before joining the Griffin Park outfit.

His main position is right winger, but he is used as a left winger as well. Speaking of his international career, Said Benrahma made his debut for the Algeria national team on October 13, 2015 in a 1-0 win over Senegal.
Highlighted Team (Nantes):
Founded on April 21, 1943 Nantes is a professional football club that compete in French Ligue 1. Les Canaris are considered one of the most famous French clubs and they had a lot of success during the sixties and the seventies. Nantes won their first Ligue 1 title in the 1964/1965 season and 36 years later (2000/2001) they clinched their eighth (last) domestic trophy.
Speaking of the club’s European success, les Canaris did well to make it to the Champions League semis in 1996, but Italian giants Juventus proved to be a big catch for the French outfit. Nantes welcome their rivals at La Beaujoire-Louis Fonteneau and the capacity of the stadium is 38.004.
The likes of Vahid Halilhodzic, Adel Selimi, Michel Der Zakarian, Viorel Moldovan, Mario Yepes, Marcel Desailly, Didier Deschamps, Claude Makelele, Christian Karembeu and Dimitri Payet are the notable footballers who played for the club in the past. Nantes are well known for their yellow jerseys and that is the reason why they are nicknamed the Canaries (les Canaris).
