On Friday, at 19:45, Olympique Lyon will receive Guingamp’s visit in a match for the 25th round of Ligue 1. The game will take place at Lyon’s “Parc Olympique Lyonnais” stadium.
Big Battle for the three points Friday night in Lyon, as neither of the two combatants admits any wrong move. The host group is highly favored, of course, because of its huge value status and value. On the other hand, however, Guingamp is struggling to get out of the “marshes” of the relegation area, but unsuccessfully. By far the weakest defense in Ligue 1 with 48 goals scored in 23 rounds, an average of over 2 goals / match, defending the “red flashlight” seems to be more than vulnerable to a trio offensive, Depay-Fekir-Dembele, one set to blow the sponge defeating the surprise suffered by Lyon in the last round, 0-1 on Nice’s field.
In the last ten direct confrontations between the two bands, Lyon was forced seven times, while Guingamp won the other three matches;
Seven of the previous eight direct duels ended with voids on both sides;
The last success of Guingamp in Lyon dates from December 2016, from a qualification after the penalty shoot-outs in the best of the League of France Cup;
Given the circumstances of this game, we expect a spectacular hostile run. By relying solely on the offensive capabilities of the hosts, but wishing to avoid the potential surprises, we would prefer to play without complications on a scenario with goals in both halves, considering that Lyon will start the game in front of a vulnerable team.
PREDICTION: Over 2,5 goals @ 1,55
