Olympique Lyonnais - Nice predictions

The visitors are aware of the challenge that awaits them. To come out on top against Olympique Lyonnais on their own field would be a major achievement, and it is always a tough task.

The visitors are conscious of the challenge before them. To come out on top against Olympique Lyonnais on their home field would be a noteworthy accomplishment, and it is never an easy task.

Olympique Lyonnais are here on the back of a surprise 1:2 victory against Montpellier in the last round. They spent the first half on the back foot thanks to a home-field disadvantage and tough matchup against Montpellier but managed to take control of the game before the end and overturn the result completely.

Despite a slightly favourable match-up and a home-field advantage, Nice’s latest Ligue 1 match did not end well for them. The first half ended in a draw, but the match ultimately went to the underdogs Monaco.

The home team’s main goal as we enter round 22 is getting as far away from the relegation zone as possible. Though challenging, a victory here would be a great way to do so.

The visiting team are currently one of the top-ranking squads in the entire Ligue 1. Even so, most bookmakers agree that the match can go either way, so earning 3 points would be a hard-fought battle.

We see several draws on record between these two teams in the past season alone. Olympique Lyonnais may be the favourites, but it’s becoming very clear that they can’t easily beat Nice.

Betting on a Draw is likely to be your best option, though it’s a relatively risky wager. It offers decent value with the 3.23 odds, though, which can be found at top online bookmakers such as Pncl.
