Angers and Lyon are both on a downward spiral and will hope for some reprieve after the international break. Poor runs have host Angers in 12th spot ahead of this game while Lyon are clinging on to fourth. Let’s have a look at the match prediction.
Angers needed the international break to bring some order after suffering a 5-1 defeat to title-chasing Lens last time out. That loss was their fifth in six Ligue 1 matches, leaving Les Scoistes 10 points above the drop zone with seven matches to go.
Out of their 32 points, Angers won 20 in home matches. This will offer a boost as they face another struggling side.
Lyon’s earlier 13-game winning run is now a distant memory after a poor run in recent times. Les Gones are coming into this match without a win in seven outings.
They lost five times in the process, suffering elimination from two competitions. At least there’s still a top four place to battle for.
Currently occupying the spot, Lyon are no longer comfortable in it as they are only three points ahead of seventh. Teams behind them are doing well, and this should concern the visitors, who have bagged just one point from the last three away league games.
Before heading into the international break, Lyon suffered a 2-1 defeat at home against Monaco.

Our Angers vs Lyon Prediction
Angers scored just one goal in the last five meetings with Lyon. The visitors, who have dominated this fixture, are no longer in great scoring form going by their recent returns. Lyon are also short of confidence after their 13-match winning run ground to a halt.
Les Gones still look superior to Angers, who are struggling even more, but the outstanding feeling here is that of a low-scoring match. Our prediction for Angers v Lyon is for less than 2.5 goals.
