Nice vs Lyon
An interesting matchup this one with different goals for both teams approaching the game.Nice after a bad spell of games will do their best to win and climb the table,while Lyon have their eyes on the top spot of the Ligue 1 table.
Nice
Patrick Viera needs to work on his team’s defensive tactics if he wants to get back to winning ways.They have conceded 5 goals in their last 6 matches and they have to strengthen their defence if they want to get a result against Olympique Lyonnais.Les Aiglons have a decent squad but can they find a way to win against a very strong Lyon side? Having won this fixture last year, maybe that can fire them up.
Lyon
Lyon have won their last 5 matches in Ligue 1 with just 1 defeat so far this season.They are one of the contenders to win the league if they continue with their impressive stats.Rudi Garcia has a great squad with players such as Aouar,Dembele, Depay and Toko. Garcia is a coach known to inspire his players with a winning mentality and this team is another example.They have great fighting spirit and their will to win might just be too much for Nice to deal with.
Verdict
Although Nice are well behind Lyon in the league table we think they are a very tough opponent for Lyon to deal with at the Allianz Riviera stadium.
Our verdict: Both teams to score.
