- Venue: Parc Olympique Lyonnais (Lyon)
Lyon’s dismal season saw a glimmer of hope following their victory over Montpellier in the French Cup’s 1/8 final. However, even this win will be insignificant if the historically significant French club somehow faces relegation. The situation is currently tense as Lyon is only three points ahead of Lorient, who are in the play out position, and five points ahead of Metz, who are in the danger zone. Their situation has been slightly salvaged by their victories in the last two rounds, one against Marseille, which saved them from further embarrassment.
Nice’s loss to Monaco in the derby match has left the Principality club trailing by just one point. Despite still holding their second-place position, Nice faces threats from numerous clubs. Their primary objective for the remainder of the season is to maintain the rank that guarantees their participation in the Champions League. This season sees a tough competition for the second and third places, as PSG is almost certain to retain their title with a significant 11-point lead over Nice.
Lyon vs Nice pick: UNDER 2.5 GOALS
56 goals were scored in Lyon matches this season, which is slightly less than 3 on average. Lyon’s defense is disastrous, currently the second worst in the league. However, in 3 of the last 5 matches at home they have a clean sheet and it seems that segment is improving. Only 36 goals have been scored so far in 21 matches of Nice, which is slightly less than 2 goals on average. Nice is especially defensive-minded on away games and now expect that they will not attack too much unless they are given a lot of space. 3 out of 4 previous direct duels ended under 2.5 goals and we take this as the final bet
