Olimpia Milano — Lyon-Villeurbanne, prediction and H2H — November 12, 2025
Olimpia Milano
Lyon-Villeurbanne
On November 12, 2025, the Euroleague Round 10 match between Olimpia Milano and Lyon-Villeurbanne will take place at the Unipol Forum in Milan. Let’s take a closer look at the potential outcome of this clash.
Olimpia Milano
Olimpia Milano approach this matchup in good form, having lost only once in their last five games across all competitions. In their most recent Serie A match, the Milan side claimed a confident 87–63 home victory over Treviso and currently sit 4th in the standings with a 5–2 record.
In the EuroLeague, Milano are coming off an important away win — a dramatic 97–93 overtime triumph against Anadolu Efes. Despite that result, the team sit 9th in the EuroLeague standings with a 4–5 record. Their home performances, however, have been inconsistent: one win against Paris and two losses to Monaco and Valencia in three EuroLeague games played in Milan.
Among the team’s key players are Zach Leday, averaging 15.8 points per game, and Devin Booker, who contributes significantly on the boards with 5.9 rebounds per game.
However, Olimpia will be without two important players for this matchup — Lorenzo Brown and Zach Leday are both sidelined due to injuries.
In head-to-head home meetings against ASVEL Lyon, Milano hold the advantage — they have won five of the last six encounters, with the only defeat coming in 2023.
Lyon-Villeurbanne
Last season was a disappointing one for ASVEL Lyon-Villeurbanne in the EuroLeague — the French side managed only 13 wins and 21 losses, finishing 15th in the standings. Unfortunately, the new campaign hasn’t brought much improvement. After nine rounds, ASVEL sit at the bottom of the table with a 2–7 record, struggling particularly on the road, where they have lost all five away games so far.
However, the team finally ended a four-game losing streak with a convincing 83–62 win in the French domestic league over Gravelines-Dunkerque, which slightly lifted the team’s morale. Still, their EuroLeague form remains concerning — ASVEL have suffered three consecutive defeats, including a recent 67–81 loss at Fenerbahçe, preceded by heavy defeats against Zalgiris Kaunas and Crvena Zvezda.
Offensively, ASVEL have been the weakest team in the EuroLeague this season, averaging only 77.2 points per game — a figure that makes it difficult to compete against Europe’s elite clubs.
In head-to-head matchups with Olimpia Milano, the French side also trail significantly, winning only twice in the last six encounters and losing four.
Ahead of this clash, ASVEL face additional lineup problems, as several key players are unavailable due to injuries. Given their poor away record and the strength of the opponent, it will be another difficult game for the French team in Milan.

Olimpia Milano — Lyon-Villeurbanne prediction
Both teams enter this matchup in completely different form and mood. Olimpia Milano are currently in a strong run, having lost only once in their last five games. In the EuroLeague, the team shows solid performance overall, although their home results remain somewhat inconsistent. Lyon-Villeurbanne, on the other hand, continue to struggle. Despite a recent win in the French league, the team looks unconvincing with only one victory in the last five matches. In the EuroLeague, the French side have yet to win an away game and currently sit at the bottom of the standings. Additional squad problems only make things more difficult for the coaching staff. In this matchup, Olimpia Milano are the clear favorites. The Italian team are expected to secure a confident win without major issues. However, a high-scoring game is unlikely since ASVEL have the weakest offense in the league, while Olimpia also do not show explosive attacking basketball this season. My bet for this match: total under 163.5 points at odds of 1.66.
