February coming fast and furious for OL
presented by
Sunday's game at home against first-place Paris Saint-Germain marks the beginning of yet another busy month for Olympique Lyonnais. Still in contention in three competitions (Ligue 1 Conforama, Champions League, Coupe de France) Bruno Genesio and company will play a total of six matches in February. It all starts with the highly anticipated showdown with PSG, comfortably on top of the L1 standings with a 13-point lead. That said, Thomas Tuchel will be without the injured Neymar and Marco Verratti - two key players whose absences will definitely be to Lyon's advantage, especially with the Groupama Stadium fans on their side.
Three at home, three away
After Paris, OL are set to visit Guingamp in the Coupe de France Round of 16. This will be followed by another trip, this time at Nice in Match Day 24 day of Ligue 1 Conforama. Les Gones will once again cross paths with Guingampais, but in front of their home crowd at Groupama Stadium and in L1 - their final match before hosting Barça in the first leg of their Champions League Round of 16 tie.. Captain Nabil Fekir and his teammates will finish off the grueling month with a trip to the Stade Louis II, home of relegation-threatened Monaco.
