Lyon vs Zenit St Petersburg Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League

 by Daniel Ngulu | in Champions League Prediction

Zenit go to their Champions League game against Olympique Lyon after back to back wins in the Russian Premier League and being top of the table, they will want to register early dominance in Europe as well. They take on a Lyon side winless in the last three matches and definitely short in confidence. Lyon have no win in seven Champions League matches, and have managed just two wins in the last 13. Their last Champions League game ended in a 5 – 1 beating by Barcelona, but that is their only loss in 11 Champions League games. Lyon have drawn eight of 11 Champions League matches. They have drawn each of their last five Champions League matches at home and are winless in six. Zenit, on the other hand, have lost each of the last three Champions League matches but have six wins in the last 10. They have failed to score in just one of the last eight Champions League matches and have six clean sheets in the last 15. Away from home, they have five wins and five losses in the Champions League and they have managed just one clean sheet in the last six Champions League away matches. Competitively, Lyon have never beaten Zenit; the two sides have met thrice before with Lyon winning once, in a friendly, while Zenit have two wins, in the Champions League.

Our Lyon vs Zenit St Petersburg Prediction

Lyon have not been winning a lot of matches in the Champions League, neither have they been losing a lot. Most of their matches have ended in draws and meeting a solid Zenit side will call on them to be at the top of their game too. Both sides will be looking to start the campaign on a high but we predict this to end in a draw.

Up to 70% bonus for accumulators on over 80 selected leagues at bet365. Applies to pre-match accumulators of 2+ selections on the standard Full Time Result or Result/Both Teams To Score markets only. The bonus percentage is dependent on the number of selections. Bonus capped at £100k and applied to returns. Bet restrictions and T&Cs apply. New and eligible customers only.

bet365's fantastic Soccer Acca Boost includes the top domestic leagues in Europe along with the group and knockout stages of the Champions League. You can earn a bonus of up to 70% if you place accumulators on selected competitions including the Premier League, Serie A, Primera Liga, Bundesliga 1 and French Ligue 1, Champions League and Europa League. Place a pre-match accumulator with bet365 of 2 or more selections on the standard Full Time Result, Both Teams to Score or Result/Both Teams To Score markets combining teams in any of these competitions and, if successful, the relevant bonus will be added to your returns. As of 2024, this is no longer available in certain Hungarian or Norweigan leagues and Cups but can now be used in the English Women's Super League and the Women's Champions League. 

The bonus will not apply where a stake has been fully Cashed Out. Where a stake has been partially Cashed Out, the bonus will be calculated based on the remaining active stake.

If a qualifying bet is edited using the Edit Bet feature, the bonus will be calculated based on the new stake. Where a bet has been edited to include or amend a selection for an event that is In-Play, the bonus will no longer apply.
