Olympique Lyonnais vs OGC Nice Prediction 1 December 2024
Added on 29 November, 2024
Lyon and Nice, both Europa League participants, are set to face off in Sunday’s Ligue 1 clash, marking the thirteenth round of the competition.
Lyon currently sit in sixth place with 19 points and a goal difference of 19:16. Their recent form has been solid, avoiding defeat in their last five matches with a dominant 4:0 win over Le Havre, a narrow 1:0 victory against Saint-Étienne, and draws against Auxerre (2:2), Lille (1:1), and Reims (1:1). This consistency keeps them well-positioned to contend for a European spot at the season's end.
Nice, meanwhile, have performed slightly better, holding fifth place with 20 points and a 23:12 goal statistic. The Eagles have shown resilience in recent weeks, defeating Monaco (2:1), Brest (1:0), and Strasbourg (2:1), alongside hard-fought draws with Nantes (1:1) and Lille (2:2).
Both teams appear evenly matched, though Lyon’s strong home form could give them a slight edge. A narrow win for the hosts or a closely contested draw seems the most likely outcome.
