Ligue 1 brings an intriguing clash on Sunday as Nantes hosts Lyon. Here's a detailed analysis and prediction for this encounter: will it be a dull affair?

Nantes

The "Canaries" are struggling this season, currently sitting in the relegation playoff zone, trailing the 15th spot only on goal difference.

In their last match, Nantes had a good opportunity to secure three points against direct rivals Saint-Étienne but conceded a late equalizer, resulting in a 1:1 draw. They are now on a run of three consecutive draws and haven’t won in their last four matches. With their elimination from the Coupe de France, Nantes must focus all their energy on improving their league position.

Lyon

The "Lions" are juggling multiple competitions this season, with mixed results. They are sixth in the league, three points behind the top four, leaving everything to play for.

In their last Ligue 1 outing, Lyon played a lackluster 0:0 draw at home against Toulouse. Their recent form shows signs of a slump, with only one win in their last four league matches. They’ve also exited the Coupe de France after a shocking penalty shootout loss to a fourth-division side. However, they are performing well in the Europa League, securing a playoff spot after a 0:0 draw away at Fenerbahce this week. Staying in the top eight of the Europa League standings is now their next goal.

Probable Lineups

  • Nantes: Lopes, Cozza, Castelletto, Pallois, Adou, Chirivella, Simon, Douglas Augusto, Loubongo, Guirassy, Ablin.
  • Lyon: Lucas Perri, Kumbedi, Clinton Mata, Niakaté, Tagliafico, Veretout, Matić, Tolisso, Cherki, Mikautadze, Benrahma.

Match Facts

  • Nantes’ home form: 2 wins, 3 losses, and 3 draws.
  • Lyon’s away form: 3 wins, 3 losses, and 3 draws.
  • Odds for the match: Nantes win (P1) – 3.75, Draw (X) – 3.55, Lyon win (P2) – 2.03.

Head-to-Head

In the first-round encounter, Lyon secured a 2:0 home victory. Matches between these teams have typically been low-scoring, with under 3 goals scored in 5 of their last 6 meetings.

Prediction

Bookmakers favor Lyon slightly, but this match could go either way as both teams are motivated. Given their recent struggles and the historical trend of low-scoring encounters, this game is unlikely to see much action in front of goal. A bet on under 2.5 total goals appears to be a solid option for this match.
