The second leg of the Women's Champions League quarter-final between Lyon and Bayern will be played on Wednesday at the "Parc Olympique Lyonnais" stadium. The first match between these teams ended with a victory for the French players with a score of 2-0. I suggest betting on the outcome of this match with a good odds.
Match preview
Lyon stubbornly maintains its unbeaten streak in regular time since the beginning of the year, but surprised everyone by crashing out of the French Cup at the 1/16 final stage. The team unexpectedly lost to Reims in a penalty shootout, although bookmakers considered their victory almost a formality.
In the Champions League, Lyon breezed through the group stage without the slightest problem, confidently winning all six matches with a total score of 19:1. Moreover, they are the only team in the tournament to have conceded just one goal throughout the stage. In Munich, Lyon confidently outplayed their opponent, as indicated by an xG of 0.82-2.61.
Bayern confidently passed the group stage of the Women's Champions League, taking second place in Group C and trailing only London's Arsenal. In 2025, the German team has displayed outstanding results, as if they have switched to maximum efficiency mode.
In two and a half months, the team played seven official matches in domestic tournaments—and celebrated victory in all. Moreover, six times Bayern scored at least three goals against their opponents, clearly demonstrating the power of their attacking unit. However, they failed to create problems for Lyon in the home game and couldn't beat the opposing goalkeeper.
Probable lineups
- Lyon: Frohms - Blanco, Hegering, Mingue, Wilms - Lattwein - Hagel, Huth - Endermann, Popp, Brandt
- Bayern: Grohs - Gwinn, Sembrant, Simon, Hansen - Kerr, Stanway - Lohmann, Damjanovic, Harder - Schuller
