According to their own standards, Lyon has performed mediocrely this season, and it appears certain that they won't be contending for either the league crown or Champions League qualification this year. They have just 24 points after 17 games, placing them in eighth place in Ligue 1. Lyon has had trouble establishing any sort of rhythm after the World Cup break. After losing their final two friendlies before the break, they lost 1-0 to Clermont Foot on New Year's Day in the league after defeating Brest 4-2 the previous evening. In their last 12 competitive games, Laurent Blanc's defense has only managed to keep one clean sheet due to recent defensive lapses.
