THE PREDICTION

Lyon’s 1-4 win at Nice on Saturday saw them take advantage of their rivals dropping points and they go into this round of fixtures locked on 33 points with Lille at the top of the table. Their form has been simply excellent over the last few months having gone 13 games unbeaten in the league and if they were to avoid defeat here, it would represent their longest unbeaten streak in Ligue 1 for over 15 years. Standing in their way is a Nantes side who are unlikely to offer up much resistance as they have gone seven games without a win in what is a sustained slide down the table. The on-fire hosts could put them to the sword here and with the attacking talent they possess, they could wrap this up early so consider Lyon in the Double Result market.
