PSG vs Lyon Prediction & Betting Tips - Ligue 1
by Devesh Jaganath in Ligue 1 Predictions
Paris Saint-Germain and Lyon will put their lengthy Ligue 1 unbeaten runs on the line this weekend when they face off at Parc des Princes on Sunday evening. Les Parisiens lead the league standings after 14 matches with 34 points, while Les Gones are in fifth place with 25 points. Check out our match prediction below!
The defending champions have won the last two league matches between these sides and another victory on Sunday will equal their longest win streak against this opponent over the last four decades. Interestingly, though, Lyon were the last team to beat Les Parisiens in Ligue 1 without conceding a goal (April 2023).
With the Champions League now done for the remainder of the year, PSG will be looking to extend their lead atop the table before the festive break, and are the clear favourites in this one at the books. Let’s unpack the key stats at play in this encounter.

PSG - Lyon: Form Analysis
Paris Saint-Germain kept their Champions League playoff qualification hopes alive in midweek when they secured a crucial 3-0 victory over Salzburg on the road.
However, Les Parisiens will need to carry that momentum back to the league competition this week. They dropped points in their last two matches, playing out a 1-1 draw against Nantes before a rare goalless draw with Auxerre last week.
Still, the hosts are still unbeaten this season with 10 wins and four draws, while at home they have won six of seven this term, and scored three or more goals in five of those victories.
PSG have the best attacking (37 goals) and defensive record (11 conceded) in the top flight!
Meanwhile, Lyon have also been on a strong run of form lately and notched up their seventh win of the season last weekend, easing past bottom-half Angers 3-0 on the road.
That result took Les Gones to nine league games unbeaten (W6 D3 L0), while they have only suffered one defeat in their last 12 matches - a 3-2 loss to Marseille.
The visitors have played seven away games this term and are unbeaten in their last six. They have scored in each of their last five away games and netted two or more in three of those matches.

PSG & Lyon Squad Analysis
After almost two years on the sidelines due to a ruptured Achilles tendon, Paris Saint-Germain were able to welcome Presnel Kimpembe back to their squad last week.
Lucas Hernandez has also resumed training following a lengthy absence, but manager Luis Enrique mentioned that the pair will need time to get back into their groove ahead of last week’s draw against Auxerre.
Thus, Les Parisiens have just one injury absentee for this match in the form of Senny Mayulu, who will likely miss the rest of this year with a calf problem.
Ousmane Dembele will be raring to go after missing the Champions League match in midweek!
The visitors have no fresh injury concerns at present and it would not come as a huge surprise if Pierre Sage opted to field an unchanged 11 after last week’s solid performance.
Alexandre Lacazette has netted four goals in his last four matches and will be looking to add to his tally, while Said Benrahma should get some more minutes after returning to the bench last week.
