Lyon vs Nice: Predictions and Betting Tips

Lyon

Lyon no longer has aspirations of winning Ligue 1, but they have something very important to fight for: to qualify for the Champions League. To do so, they must win this match and hope Monaco loses or draw their match.

After PSG, Lyon is the team that generates the most dangerous chances and the second highest scorer in the competition, with 79 goals in 37 matches.

They are also the fourth best home team, having lost only four games out of 18 played.

Nice

A somewhat disappointing season for Nice, as they cannot even reach the sixth position and thus qualify for the Europa Conference League.

Nice have won 51% of their points when playing as an away team, which indicates that they are a team that has almost the same ability to play as a home team as they do as an away team.

Key Stats

• Four wins and one defeat for Lyon in their last five games
• Lyon has conceded at least one goal in all of their last five games
• Three losses and two wins for Nice in their last five games
• Nice has conceded at least two goals in four of their last five games

Lyon vs Nice Predictions

With Lyon playing for a place in the Champions League, playing in their own stadium and against a weaker team with nothing at stake, we see Lyon as clear favorites to take all three points.

Despite being favorites, Lyon has been conceding a lot of goals lately, and obviously Nice is conceding even more. So we think it could be a game in which both teams score.
