Lyon and Ludogorets will battle for a crucial three points at Parc Olympique Lyonnais in the final league phase game of the UEFA Europa League. Lyon are fifth in the table, while Ludogorets are 33rd. Here's our match prediction.
Lyon paid the price for their profligacy in front of goal as they settled for a 1-1 league draw against Nantes on the road to share the spoils last week. This marked their third match without a win (D2, L1).
Les Gones have been impressive in the UEFA Europa League recording four wins, two draws, and suffering one loss. Thanks to those results, they find themselves inside the top-eight and are one point ahead of ninth-placed Galatasaray.
Their most recent outing in this competition saw them being held to a goalless draw against Fenerbahce. They will be hoping for a better result at home where they've won two of their three league phase games.
A 2-0 home defeat to Midtjylland in the UEFA Europa League stretched Ludogorets' winless run in this competition to seven games.
Four losses and three draws were recorded during that run and their limited creativity in the final third proved to be their downfall, failing to score in five games.
The Eagles are fourth from the bottom and their chances of progressing to the knockout phase play-off have vanished entirely.
