Monaco vs Lyon Predictions

Lyon finally showed some positive signs last weekend, but Monaco are the best hosts in the league. I will back visitors to score here, but also to lose the match.

Head to Head

Lyon have a 27-20 advantage against Monaco with 13 draws in 60 matches.

The most recent head to head encounter was won by Lyon 3-1 in May.

Monaco Form

Monaco continued with their great performances in December last weekend by winning three important points on the road against Rennes with Vanderson and Youssouf Fofana hitting the target.

That was their second straight victory, previously beating Montpellier at home 2-0. The Reds and Whites currently sit in 3rd place on the table with 30 points from 15 matches, six points behind the leaders PSG.

Wissam Ben Yedder has been the most prolific player on the roster this season, scoring six goals in his fourteen league appearances. Takumi Minamino is also playing an important role, having five goals and four assists so far.

Monaco Team News

Caio Henrique, Breel Embolo, Myron Boadu and Eliot Matazo are injured.

Alexander Golovin is suspended.

Lyon Form

Lyon are having one of the worst seasons in the club’s recent history, winning just ten points from the opening fifteen rounds and sitting in the last 18th position at the moment.

Pierre Sage’s side defeated Toulouse 3-0 in the previous round with Alexandre Lacazette scoring a hat-trick, ending their three-game losing streak. Previously, Lyon lost to Lille 2-0, Lens 3-2 and Marseille 3-0.

Les Gones played seven matches on the road this season and the current record is one win, one draw and five defeats.

Lyon Team News

Remy Riou and Johann Lepenant are injured.

Verdict

Monaco v Lyon

Monaco are the best hosts in Ligue 1 and I expect them to keep winning on Friday but also to concede at least one goal against Lyon.
