Reason for Lyon vs Nice Predictions
Eighth-placed Lyon hosts Nice, who is in ninth. The home side can climb to seventh with a win in this game but would still be four points behind the Champions League places. They need to bounce back from last weekend’s 1-0 loss at Marseille. Lyon began the new season with four wins from their first five league fixtures. September and early October were a forgettable time with a run of just one point from six games. The form has picked up of late, but the goals aren’t flowing, with only one scored in the last two matches. They are a Jekyll and Hyde side with only four points from seven away league matches. However, at home, they have 16 points from seven Ligue 1 games, with their only loss being inflicted by leaders PSG. Nine of their last 11 home league games have been won. Maxence Caqueret has excellent ball control, he can play in several positions, and every club needs such a player. Alexandre Lacazette is a great player, he creates a lot of problems for his opponents, and the greatest virtue of this guy is speed. There’s just a single fitness concern for the Lyon manager Laurent Blanc to be concerned about, thanks to an almost full-strength group. Julian Pollersbeck (Knee Surgery) is out of contention.
Nice can go ahead of Lyon if they can win this match. Only two of their last seven away league visits to Lyon have been won, and last season they lost 2-0. They come into this game having won their previous two matches in Ligue 1. Nice won their Europa Conference League group last week and are unbeaten in their last five French league matches. They’ve only been beaten in one of their last five away league games, and that was to PSG. This should be a tightly contested match, but it’s the impressive home form of Lyon that leads us to predict a win for them, possibly with both teams scoring. Gaetan Laborde enjoys the pitch, when he receives the ball and goes toward the goal, the opponent has problems, he is strong, and it is challenging to keep this guy. Nicolas Pepe plays excellently, he is fast in the one-on-one game, and he is unstoppable.
Conclusion
There are no favorites in this match, and we won’t be surprised if this clash could end in a draw.
This will be a big fight between these two rivals, and we should expect a goal from both teams. Football fans should enjoy this match and see at least a goal in each net.
