The strongest duel of the stage in Ligue 1! A new domination of the Parisians is announced

Lyon: Team information, moment form

Lyon did not recover after that success with 6-0 in front of Angers and has increasingly weak results. They gave up with Montpellier away (score 1-0), and in the next two rounds they drew with Bordeaux (score 1-1) and Amiens (2-2 away). In the middle of the week, they received a visit from Zenit Petersburg, in the first round of the UEFA Champions League groups. The Russians managed to open the score in the first half, and Depay equalized from the penalty in the 50th minute of the match and set the final score. Lyon has not lost on home soil with PSG for 3 years.

PSG: Team information, moment form

The Parisians are doing excellent, even without Cavani and Mbappe. They decimated Real Madrid in the middle of the week with a categorical 3-0, after a magical evening of Angel di Maria. In the championship things went right after the defeat with Rennes, so PSG has 3 consecutive victories. They went in line with Toulouse (4-0 score), Metz (2-0 score) and Strasbourg (1-0 score). Today Neymar will return to the field and it remains to be seen how the Brazilian will evolve, after he was copiously kidnapped in the Strasbourg duel.

Lyon vs Paris SG Picks

But the match takes place in Parc des Princes, I would have recommended the victory of the Parisians without thinking. Lyon, however, is motivated on his own ground, especially in a derby with PSG. I expect a spectacular duel, because the guests will definitely score, with players like Icardi, Di Maria or Neymar on the field. Lyon is unlikely to count on offense in front of a full stadium, and recent direct duels encourage me to recommend this prognosis.

Our Prediction: Over 2.5

Odds: 1.45
