Lyon

The confrontation between Strasbourg and Lyon will be part of matchday 23 of French Ligue 1, scheduled for February 22, 2026. Both teams have rich histories in the league, but this season there are very different dynamics. While Lyon seeks to establish itself in the top positions, Strasbourg is fighting to stay in the fight for a European place.

Team analysis

Lyon is currently in third place in the table with 45 points, six and seven points behind PSG and Lens respectively. This makes them one of the serious contenders in the league, with an outstanding performance in the last few games. The team led by Paulo Fonseca has had an impressive run, remaining unbeaten in their last 15 games in all competitions. This performance places them as favorites in this duel.

On the other hand, Strasbourg, which occupies seventh place with 31 points, has had a promising start, but has lost momentum in recent weeks. Their last match against PSG ended in an expected defeat (1-2), and a surprising loss against Le Havre also 1-2. These defeats have made the team have to fight even harder for its goal of qualifying for European competitions, although the difference with sixth place is only three points.
