Lyon Ou vs Bulls Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions Cup
by Nella Wagah in Champions Cup Predictions
Looking to return to winning ways after a false start, Lyon will host Bulls in a Saturday Champions Cup clash. A narrow defeat to Bristol leaves Lyon fourth in Group 1 while victory took Bulls to third place. Both teams currently occupy quarter final slots as they look to maintain their positions up till Round 4. Lyon’s silver lining in Bristol’s loss was a double losing bonus point after four tries and a loss within seven points. The defeat came in agonising fashion with Bristols’ Callum Sheedy kicking a drop goal five minutes after the hooter. An inconsistent Top 14 start means Lyon sit 12th just a place above relegation.
Bulls opened their Champions Cup with a morale-boosting 27-16 win over Saracens to extend their three-game winning streak. The South African side has been in form in the United Rugby Championship and the best attack that has yielded 274 points. Their attack has scored 37 tries, with scrum being their forte. The 2022 URC runners up’s brilliant start to the season has lifted them to third place on the log with 25 points from seven matches. Bulls are however likely to rotate their squad against Lyon with one eye on the derby against the Stormers a week later.
