On June 3, Allianz Riviera (Nice) will host the match of the 38th round of the French Ligue 1, in which Nice will compete with Lyon. The battle will start at 21:00 CET.

Nice

The team, speaking about the current state of things, has got a wealthy and ambitious owner – the British corporation, Ineos, which belongs to Ratcliffe. Still, there is a threat that James will turn all his attention to Manchester United if he manages to buy the English giant. Moreover, it has not been possible to achieve truly serious success in France yet. There was the 5th place in the previous season there, and it was perceived as a failure. Speaking about the new cycle, having strengthened the line-up (let’s mention the poaching Schmeichel from Leicester) and replacing the mentors, “the Eagles” have fallen down into the middle of the standings. There were chances to compensate for the higher mentioned misfire in the Conference League, but, after an away draw, the French team lost the home battle of the 1/4 finals to Basel. And it is just finishing the season at the inner arena. There is no surprise that 3 previous matches ended with all possible outcomes: there happened a 0-2 score in the match with Strasbourg, a goalless draw in the home battle against Toulouse and a shoot-out victory in the confrontation with Montpellier.

Lyon

The club has got a formal chance to return to the European competitions. Still, this requires just an incredible alignment: a victory in the last round with simultaneous defeats of both Monaco and Rennes, because they both are ahead of “the Weavers” by 3 points. Generally speaking, there is a feeling that Laurent Blanc simply did not have enough time. He came already in the course of the season, when, after another failure, Peter Bosz was fired. It took a long time for “Le Président” to rebuild the game. It goes without saying that there was a powerful segment in April and May – there happened 7 victories in 9 rounds, including the battles against PSG and Monaco. Even the higher mentioned breakthrough allowed Lacazette (Alexandre, has already scored 27 goals in the Ligue 1 after returning to France) and the company “climbed” only to the 7th place.

The statistics of head-to-head matches

Nice won both matches in the last but one year. Speaking about 2022, Lyon already had an advantage: a victory and a draw.

Predictions

Bookmakers consider the opponents to be pretty equal. Taking into account the shape of Lyon, it is reasonable to bet on its victory with “a 0 goal handicap” (odd: 2.04).
