After their remarkable crisis continued in midweek, Lyon welcome Toulouse to the Groupama Stadium on Sunday looking to pick themselves up off the canvas.
A thrashing away to bitter rivals Marseille was possibly the lowest point of the campaign so far for Ligue 1's bottom club, who are on the verge of hiring a third permanent manager of the season already.
The game was rearranged after Fabio Grosso suffered serious facial injuries after the Lyon team bus was attacked by missiles by Marseille supporters, but the Italian was not even in the dugout for the game as he has already become the second OL boss to be sacked this season.
New interim manager Pierre Sage was welcomed with a baptism of fire, facing two very daunting away games at the raucous atmospheres of Lens and Marseille, and defeats in both mean it is now nine losses in 14 games this season.
After beating Rennes just before the international break, Lyon have not kicked on, and it only took one game for Grosso to be sacked after that, following a defeat to Lille.
