Lyon and Nantes, battling on the extreme ends of the Ligue 1 standings, are set to face off next in Ligue 1. Hosts Lyon are seventh in the standings, while Nantes arrive for this game placed 15th. Let’s have a look at the match prediction for this.
Lyon put a smile on their fans' faces finally with a huge midweek win in Europe. Les Gones thrashed Maccabi Tel Aviv 6-0 away from home in the Europa League.
That brought to an end a run of five matches without a win. With that streak, Lyon dropped out of the European football slot, and this is the chance to bounce back, given their good record against Nantes.
Having struggled against Lyon and also on a poor run coming here, Nantes will be desperate to rise again. They are in danger of going winless in five matches, which could see them drop into the bottom three.
As it stands, they are just out of the red zone courtesy of goal difference. It isn’t unfolding as a great season for Les Canaris, who have managed just two wins in 13 league games.
They missed a great opportunity to rise away from the relegation region last week, as they could only play to a 1-1 draw with Lorient.
