Europa League league phase leaders Olympique Lyon will welcome Go Ahead Eagles this week, seeking to strengthen their knockout qualification chances. With three rounds left to play, Lyon have won double the number of points that their visitors, who are 27th in the standings, have. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
Lyon have so far been dominant in Europe. They have won four of their five games and sit in pole position to make the next round of the competition. Despite their dominance, the French giants do not have breathing space at the top of the table.
Paulo Fonseca’s men are tied with two other teams on 12 points and therefore cannot afford to drop points. Les Gones hammered Maccabi Tel Aviv 6-0 on matchday five. They, however, lost their most recent game 1-0 to Lorient in domestic league action.
Go Ahead Eagles also cannot afford to drop points in their remaining three games if they are to qualify for the next round. The Dutch side is tied with three other teams on six points and sit outside the knockout qualifying places by goal difference.
Melvin Boel’s men have blown hot and cold when in Europe. With no drawn matches, Go Ahead, who have scored just four goals, have lost three times.
On matchday five, the visitors were outclassed at home by Stuttgart, who recorded a 4-0 victory in an emotionally charged game. Go Ahead have won just one of their last seven matches, losing four times. They drew 2-2 with AZ Alkmaar last time out.

Our Lyon vs Go Ahead Eagles Prediction
Our prediction for Olympique Lyon v Go Ahead Eagles is for this match to produce more than 2.5 goals. Lyon are the overwhelming favorites to win this match. They have dominated on both ends of the pitch, and only one team has scored more than their 11 goals.
Having scored three goals in their most recent match at home and six last time out in Europe, they look bound for another attacking sparkle. Lyon will seek a big win, as goal difference is what is keeping them top of the league phase. Facing a Go Ahead Eagles side that lacks defensive solidity strengthens our belief that this match will see a high-scoring outcome.
