Olympique Lyonnais confirmed that he will not postpone his next Ligue 1 match against AJ Auxerre, scheduled for this Sunday. This decision comes in a context where the Lyon team is still marked by a difficult match in the Europa League against Manchester United, concluded on a parity score. The tight schedule of Olympique Lyonnais, contrasting with the rest given to Paris Saint-Germain this weekend, raised questions about the team’s strategy.

According to sources close to the club, the management, under the aegis of John Textor, preferred to maintain the game at its initial date in order to preserve the team’s competitive pace. Although the option of a postponement was considered, it was ruled out for continuity in the meeting schedule. This decision demonstrates a willingness to maintain a positive dynamic and not to break the flow of alternation between competitions.

Finally, Olympique Lyonnais won over the start time of the meeting, which will take place at 8:45 pm at the Stade de l’Abbé Deschamps. The game, arbitrated by Frappart, looks crucial for both teams, and the audience is looking forward to the outcome of this match in Ligue 1.
