Today's Predictions for Lyon vs Strasbourg
Lyon need a victory over struggling Strasbourg to reignite their fading hopes of landing a top five finish in Ligue 1. Read our top predictions for this weekend’s fixture below.
Lyon to Win
Strasbourg are one of the favourites for the drop in Ligue 1 this season which comes as no surprise given their dismal record of just one victory in 18 top flight matches in France, and they should offer little resistance to Lyon at the Groupama Stadium on Saturday. Strasbourg were beaten in each of their last two away assignments despite playing chunks of both games with a one-man advantage, so expect them to struggle again in this one.
Over 2.5 Goals
Only four clubs have conceded more goals than Strasbourg in Ligue 1 this term and the team’s generosity at the back routinely produced plenty of high-scoring matches involving the relegation candidates, especially on the road. Indeed, 100% of their last five away fixtures in the division have featured at least three goals and another exciting tussle could be in the works when Strasbourg take their leaky backline to play Lyon on Saturday. With that considered, another stake on over 2.5 goals is advised at the prices on offer for our second prediction free football betting tips.
