On Thursday, following the meeting in the Spanish city of Vigo last week, Lyon and Celta will clash in France. Finely balanced at 1-1, the tie is still there for the taking. A week ago, we saw Celta delivering an impressive first-half display, countering to great effect, scoring the opening goal of the game in efficient style. The Spaniards then held the lead for over an hour, half of which was spent with a player less following the dismissal of Borja Iglesias, before the tricky Endrick got the French side back on terms with an 87th minute strike. 

In general, there wasn't much between the two teams a week ago, with both creating decent openings at times, so a tie was about right. Back on home soil, having matched their opponents on the road, Paulo Fonseca's men should fancy themselves to get the job done, especially as they've won 11 of their last 13 home games in all competitions.

Our Lyon vs Celta Vigo Prediction

Having seen both Lyon and Celta create a decent amount against each other a week ago, both netting, 'Both Teams to Score' looks a little too leniently priced here. The visitors know how to score goals on the road, make no mistake about that, but they've struggled to shut teams out, which leads me to believe that a game where at least one goal does in at each end is a little more likely than the early odds suggest. 

Not only did both teams score in the first leg, but both teams created in excess of 1.00 expected goals each, which futher fuels my 'Both Teams to Score' fire.
