Lyon vs Nice Preview 


Lyon’s form improved drastically in comparison to late 2023, winning six of their last eight games. Nice rarely win on the road recently, so a draw is likely in France. Both sides also score regularly, so BTTS is also tipped.

Head to Head 


Lyon have a 27-14 advantage against Nice with 13 draws in 54 matches. 

They last met in August 2023, the game ending in a goalless draw in Nice. 

Lyon Form 


Lyon spent a lot of time sitting inside the relegation zone this season, but six victories in their last eight league appearances pushed them up to 13th place in Ligue 1. 

Les Gones bounced back with two straight losses in late January against Le Havre 3-1 and Rennes 3-2 with a narrow 1-0 home victory against Marseille with Alexandre Lacazette finding the net. 

They were also victorious in the previous round at Montpellier 2-1 winning it from behind with Lacazette and Maxence Caqueret hitting the target in the last fifteen minutes. Lyon had 1.24-1.53 expected goals, 55% possession and 19-15 shots in that match.

Henrique Silva is doubtful for this match. 

Nice Form 


Nice are going through a mini crisis right now, having won just one of their last four league appearances but still holding high 2nd place with 39 points from 21 matches. 

The Eaglets were defeated in a derby match last weekend by Monaco 3-2 despite having 2.44-2.17 expected goals, 47% possession and 15-9 shots. Dante’s red card in the 54th minute played a huge role in that loss. 

Before that, Nice grabbed three points at home against Metz 1-0, followed by a goalless draw on the road against Brest. 

Their current stats on the road are balanced, having four wins, three draws and three defeats. 

Nice Injuries & Team News 


Alexis Beka Beka and Sofiane Diop are ruled out for this match. 

Bonfim Dante is suspended. 

Verdict

Nice have lost only three games on the road this season. Lyon are in red-hot form right now, but I don’t see them beating the 2nd placed Eaglets. Draw and BTTS are the best bets in France.
