French giants Lyon have the perfect chance to rise back to winning ways when they face Maccabi Tel Aviv in the Europa League. Heading to this matchday five encounter, Lyon are seventh and Maccabi 34th in the standings. Read on for our prediction of the match.
Maccabi will not have a home advantage to enjoy here, as they are hosting this game in Serbia. That diminishes their chances of getting a first win in the league stage.
They enter this game with just one point, which was recorded on matchday one in a 0-0 draw with PAOK. After that they suffered defeats to Dinamo Zagreb, Midtjylland, and Aston Villa.
Lyon have lost the momentum in their recent matches, and here they will come looking to bounce back. The French side hasn’t won any of the last five matches.
That includes a 2-0 loss to Real Betis in the last round of the Europa League. The Ligue 1 giants are coming from a 0-0 draw with Auxerre, a result that left them badly off in the French topflight title race.
It was the third straight away game in which they failed to score, and the pressure will really be on here. This, though, is a game they can score multiple goals in, and Maccabi playing a home game away from home should work well for Lyon.
