Saint-Étienne - Olympique Lyonnais betting tips and odds

Saint-Étienne are the definition of underdogs in this fixture. With betting odds of 8.50, no punter will dare backing them up against Olympique Lyonnais. It is a wise decision as well as hosts will have an extremely difficult task surviving this clash.

Taking a 1.46 bet on an away game can often be risky but when it comes to Olympique Lyonnais ahead of their trip to Saint-Étienne, this match can be a great addition to your betting slip.

Saint-Étienne lost their previous away game, although the narrow 1:0 margin means it’s nothing to be ashamed of. After all, Strasbourg , their opponents, were given odds of 1.67 for a victory. They pulled ahead in the first half and Saint-Étienne never managed to equalize.

The first 45 minutes of Olympique Lyonnais’s latest game as hosts against Metz brought a fair amount of excitement but no actual goals. A first-half stalemate, however, ended up being an utter disappointment for Olympique Lyonnais supporters who saw their team slip into a narrow 0:1 loss.

Saint-Étienne gans are hoping for better defensive performance then what they’ve seen in away games. The previous three matches featured 6 conceded goals.

Olympique Lyonnais recorded 6 goals in all 3 of their latest home games. While they don’t have the home-field advantage in this match, an action-packed match seems very likely.

The season is now in full swing, and Saint-Étienne are currently placed 16th in the standings. Such results are mediocre at best – and experts are wondering if they’re heading for the relegation zone. There are just 5 points between them and the zone and Olympique Lyonnais will be a difficult clash.

Olympique Lyonnais are among the best-placed teams so far with a 3rd spot in the standings. With most of the season still ahead of us, though, there will be plenty of room for changes in the table. They still have a chance to go for the title, but losing their current position is a possibility as well.

An Over 3.5 Goals is the best option for this fixture, though it’s not perfect by any means. That said, the notable risk of failure is worth it due to the considerable betting value that can be found in the 2.70 odds.
