Prediction on Nantes vs Lyon
A 1-2 Lyon win is our pick for Nantes vs Lyon. Reason is that Lyon have been in really great form recently, winning five straight away games while Nantes have lost all of their last seven games at home in all competitions. Lyon have also not lost in any of their last six head to head encounters with Nantes, winning four of those games.
Lyon have been scoring a lot of goals recently, as they continue to find their footing in 2024, more so, they have scored at least two goals in all of their last five away games. There have also been over 1.5 goals scored in all of Nantes’ last four games in all competitions, the same can be said for Lyon in all of their last five games in all competitions.
Match Preview:
Nantes
Nantes who are currently 14th on the log, with 28 points from 27 games scored an upset in their last game against 5th placed Nice, winning away from home by a 2-1 scoreline. Nantes have had some joy away from home recently, more so, their last three league wins have been away from but it’s their home form that has been a constant let down, having lost eight in a row at home, it looks like it’s about to get even worse as they go up against a resurgent Lyon side.
Lyon
Lyon are currently in a rich vein of form, but it might be too late to make any meaningful impact as far as the league is concerned, but they are still within reach of a European qualification slot. Their 35 points from 27 games so far means they are just seven points adrift of 6th place Lens and could still make Europe with seven games to go. Lyon will be looking to make it six away wins in a row in all competitions (five in the league) and improve on their current 10th position.
