Lyon vs Zenit PREVIEW & PREDICTION 17/09/2019

On Tuesday, starting at 17:55, the match Lyon – Zenit will be played, within the phase of the Champions League groups, Group G, 2019/2020 edition. Zenit won both direct disputes, 3-1 and 2-0, in the Champions League group stage, the 2015/2016 season. Lyon now looks stronger and can win, at least on their own ground, even if the Russians oppose the resistance.

Lyon does not go through the best period in Ligue 1, obtaining only 2 points in the last 3 rounds. The last result, a draw at Amiens, score 2-2, the opponent equalizing in the 90 + 2 minute. The French group will benefit from the contribution of the Dembele – Traore – Depay triplet, capable of destabilizing any opponent. On the opposite side, Zenit is no longer as offensive as in the previous season, but wins the last two games in Russia, again reaching the first place in the Premier League standings. The Russians will come to Lyon to score points, but the offensive quality of the French can make a difference.

Probable teams

Lyon: Lopes – Andersen, Dubois, Kone, Denayer – Aouar, Tousart, Mendes – Dembele, Traore, Depay

Zenit: Lunev – Rakitskiy, Simolnikov, Santos, Ivanovic – Barrios, Ozdoev, Sutormin, Driussi – Azmoun – Dzyuba


PREDICTION: Lyon to win @ 1,75
