Olympique Lyonnais - Monaco predictions

Olympique Lyonnais will have to fight an uphill battle to win this match. They are the underdogs of the matchup – though Monaco don’t have a huge advantage. Still, with the 2.60 odds on a home win, things may get a bit dicey.

Things are looking problematic for the visiting side. They are going up against a stronger team which also has a home pitch advantage. Victory is still within reach – they’ll just have to work harder than usual to get it.

Although Olympique Lyonnais are coming on the back of a harsh 4:1 loss, it would be rather unfair to judge them purely on that performance. They were playing an away game in an extremely difficult matchup against Paris Saint Germain , so they spent most of the match trailing behind.

The away team spent more than half of their previous Ligue 1 match in a deadlock, but eventually narrowly won. That said, such an outcome was relatively predictable – the two teams were relatively close in terms of form, but Monaco had the advantage of playing at home.

Olympique Lyonnais’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 8 goals throughout their latest three Ligue 1 matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

Looking over the stats for the away team, it seems they consistently display a remarkable ability to perform under pressure. They boast 5 goals on record in their latest 3 away games alone and there is no doubt they will be looking to get their name on the score board this time around as well.

Placed at 2nd, the away team can still try and take the title. They’ll be able to call the season a success either way, but clinching the victory is probably their true hope. That said, Olympique Lyonnais are not an easy matchup by any measure, and all of the league’s teams are dialling in for a heated finish.

It will be interesting to see if Monaco manage to beat this odds in this, the second clash with Olympique Lyonnais this season. The first time around they lost with to a 1-point difference.

An Over 3.5 Goals wager here can net you considerably better results than the Over 2.5 counterpart, and the probability of winning remains almost as strong. The 1 odds offered at 1xbet are great for value, too.
