With Manchester United coming up in just under two weeks time, Lyon will be hoping to cement a strong lead at the top of the French league before they get busy in their European commitments and a home match against Sochaux represents one such opportunity for the six time consecutive French champions.

Lyon are on course for a record breaking seventh consecutive French league championship and have recovered remarkably week after a poor opening few months in both home and Europe. Lyon now have a strong four point lead over second placed Bordeaux and with Fred and Benzema forming a strong attacking line up upfront, Lyon should have enough firepower to get past midtable Sochaux this time around. Lyon have been involved in a busy transfer window season further strengthening their already brilliant midfield with the signing of Nice midfielder Ederson for a fee in the region of €15million while out of favour striker Milan Baros has made an expected move away from Lyon to Portsmouth. Lyon come into this match on the back of a 1-1 draw against ST. Etienne achieved due to a fine solo effort from young talisman Karim Benzema and will be looking for a better performance against Sochaux this time around.

Sochaux are currently rooted in the bottom three of the French league and with teams like Auxerre and Lens just ahead of them, they need to deliver results on the field in short notice if they are to survive for another year of French top league football. Sochaux were given a big boost last time around when they crept through for a narrow 1-0 win over Valencieness and will be hoping for a similar result, albeit against a much stiffer opposition. The Montbeliard club could have new signing Kandia Traore for this clash as he has registered just in time for this clash while Guirane N'Daw and Rabiu Afolabi are away on African Nations Cup duty.
