Lyon vs PSG Prediction
Lyon, following the surprise sacking of Pierre Sage, have actually started life under Paulo Fonseca very well. The home team dispatched of bottom-of-the-table Montpellier Herault by four goals to one away from home last weekend to back up a 4-0 battering of Stade de Reims the week before. They now face a Paris Saint-Germain side that annihilated Stade Brest by seven goals to nil in the second-leg of their UEFA Champions League knockout playoff round tie to complete a 10-0 aggregate win. PSG, under Luis Enrique, begin this weekend’s round of fixtures sitting ten points clear at the top-of-the-table with 17 victories and five draws in their 22 Ligue 1 matches so far this season. Lyon will attack, especially at home, and that should provide some entertainment for the neutral.
Lyon vs PSG Tip: Over 2.5 goals
