Olympique Lyonnais - Reims predictions

We don’t expect Olympique Lyonnais to have any issues beating Reims. The hosts are largely favoured by all the top bookmakers online and 1.53 might actually be a good-value bet to consider. The visitors are not to be underestimated but on this particular instance the home side are seen as clear winners.

This one has Home Win written all over it. The hosts are expected to grab a firm hold of the proceedings and Reims will be left with slim pickings in this match.

Olympique Lyonnais kept their hopes of a positive result from the previous Ligue 1 clash alive for the full 45 minutes. A draw at halftime was off the table in the second half when a single goal prevented Olympique Lyonnais from earning a point, however (HOME_LAST_ROUND_AWAY).

Despite a slightly favourable match-up and a home-field advantage, Reims’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 Nantes.

The last 3 times we saw Olympique Lyonnais play as the away team, they had serious issues stopping the ball from getting into their net, conceding more than 5 times. Hopefully, they’ll have better luck at home.

Considering they conceded more than 5 times in their latest 3 home games, there’s not a lot of confidence in Reims and their defenses. Hopefully, they’ll somehow do better as visitors.

With a favourable matchup like this, Olympique Lyonnais seem likely to earn some points towards moving up on the Ligue 1 table. They’ll need another 4 points to move up to a Europa League qualifying spot, though.

Olympique Lyonnais may be the favourites in this matchup, but they’ve yet to prove they can conclusively defeat Reims this season. They had several opportunities to do so, and all ended with a tied result.
