Paris FC began their campaign with a goalless draw at Troyes but have responded by scoring three goals in each of their last two league matches.
The latest of those victories came against Marseille, where the Parisians secured a 3-2 success to move on to seven points from their opening three fixtures.
Liam Rosenior's side have also made Stade Jean-Bouin a difficult venue for visitors, winning six of their last seven Ligue 1 home games and scoring 17 times during that run.
A fourth straight home league victory would extend a sequence dating back to last season, while Paris FC have conceded just once across those three previous wins.
Lyon, meanwhile, have had a much busier start to the campaign because of their European commitments, making Saturday's fixture their eighth match already.
Paulo Fonseca's side have won just three of those seven games but remain unbeaten in Ligue 1 after taking seven points from their opening three fixtures.
Les Gones’ latest league outing ended in a 3-1 victory over Auxerre, following a 2-0 success against Toulouse in their opening Ligue 1 match.
Lyon's defensive record has been particularly encouraging, as they have conceded only twice in the league so far and sit alongside Lille and Paris FC for the second-fewest goals allowed.
The visitors have also taken points in four of their last five away Ligue 1 matches dating back to last season, keeping three clean sheets during that spell.

Whispers predicts: Paris FC 1-1 Lyon
Paris FC's home form makes them difficult to overlook, but Lyon have conceded only twice in Ligue 1 and have collected points in four of their last five away matches, making a draw at 3.60 (13/5) an appealing correct-score option.
Both teams to score is also worth considering at 1.57 (4/7), given that the selection has landed in four of the last five meetings between the sides.
Lois Openda's shooting volume makes his 3+ shots line at 1.61 (61/100) another tempting option, while Paris FC to score first at 1.90 (9/10) could appeal given that they have not conceded the opening goal in any of their three league matches this term.
> BTTS – Yes at 1.57 (4/7) | Likelihood: Probable
> Lois Openda 3+ shots at 1.61 (61/100) | Likelihood: Possible
> Paris FC to score first at 1.90 (9/10) | Likelihood: Possible
