Lyon – Paris SG Prediction & Preview and Betting Tips (21.01.2018)

Very good, we go to France for the great game of the day 22. Lyon-PSG or what is the same, the two teams with more goals in favor this season.

Lyon :

The Lyon is second to 11 points of PSG, so we will not talk about league options or anything like that. We go with the goals that is the important thing. 49 goals in favor and 21 against, an average of 2.3 in favor and one per game against. In what we have been in league I have seen many matches of Lyon, above has a great triplet with Mariano, Fekir and Depay in which they have 13, 15 and 9 goals respectively. Not that it looks like a French team, they play quite well and are very round and round and that’s why they create so many chances.

They come from a pretty good run, the last 5 games have won 4 and tied 1 against Angers at home (1-1). Their last defeat was in the cup against Montpellier 4-1, what surprises me most about this result is that they made four when in the league they are one of the teams with the fewest goals with 18, not even one per game.

Paris SG:

PSG do not think there is much to say, 67 goals in 21 games, 3.1 on average. It is true that this average has gone up after putting 8 poor Dijon, the goalkeeper had a moment of faith crisi and did not know why he became goalkeeper in his day. Leaving the jokes aside, it is one of the few interesting matches that Emery’s team has in the league, another is Monaco and Marseille, the rest does not give much more.

Against the Dijon gave descaba to Mbappé, who came out in 68, and did not play Rabiot, instead he did Lo Celso is the one who usually has minutes in games of this type. On Sunday I do not think there is any rotation and they will play the 3 above and we will see what they do with Di Maria, which is most likely to be played with Draxler, and accompany Rabiot and Verratti in the middle. In defense there are less doubts, Marqinhos, Thiago Silva and Alves will return after playing Meunier against Dijon, and on the left I have more doubts between Yuri and Kurzawa, it is likely that the Frenchman returns but after his injury has been three times in the bench, another called off and played against Nantes.

A priori is a match that smells of goals, chances and a lot of back and forth. In the first round the result was 2-0 for PSG with two goals in own Lyon and a penalty missed by Cavani. I was watching at times and the number of occasions that failed on both sides was that there was at least one more goal. With all this, I think we will see a great fit and hopefully it will be green.
