Lyon vs Nice Prediction & Betting Tips - Ligue 1
by Nella Wagah in Ligue 1 Predictions
Two of the biggest teams in French football will clash this Sunday, when Lyon welcomes Nice for a Ligue 1 match. Heading into the clash, one point separates them, with Lyon sitting outside the European places. Read on for our prediction below.
Both Lyon and Nice are coming from Europa League matches. Traveling to Azerbaijan, Lyon ended their unstable recent run with a resounding 4-1 win. That was just their second win in a run of seven matches.
Their recent results are dotted with draws mostly and they will come here hoping for back-to-back victories. They need that to rise back into the top six.
While Lyon celebrated a big away win in Europe, Nice were also playing a Europa League game but at home. They suffered a 4-1 defeat at the hands of Rangers and will be keen to rise again.
Their weekend opponents may not be the easiest to face when pressured but Nice’s options are limited as they seek to stay in the top six.
The loss on Thursday cut short their run of five undefeated outings, and Nice had also consistently scored twice in the earlier three matches. With just a win in six away matches, Nice will come into this game as clear underdogs.

Our Lyon vs Nice Prediction
While all concerned have insisted off pitch issues are kept away from the players, Lyon’s performance has dipped a bit since the case for their relegation was raised. The hosts may be unbeaten in their last six matches, but they’ve managed just two wins in that run.
They will be facing a big opponent here and this could be the big test to Lyon’s resolve. Nice are coming from a humiliating loss in Europe and their confidence might be bashed a little. However, we expect them to rise to the occasion. Our prediction for Lyon v Nice is a draw.
