Nantes vs Lyon Predictions

• Lyon have won their last 11 games.
• Nantes have six defeats in their last nine across all comps.
• Lyon won the reverse fixture 3-0.

Lyon can make light work of Nantes

Lyon are one of the form teams in France and they head to Nantes looking for a 12th successive win across all competitions.

Nantes have lost their last three and they’ve been particularly poor at home, with no wins and six defeats across their last nine games at the Stade de la Beaujoire.

A Lyon win looks a strong play, and it could be worth taking a bit more risk in this game and backing the visitors to cover a -1 handicap.

Les Gones won the reverse fixture 3-0 and three of their last four wins have come by more than one goal, while Nantes have conceded a hefty 17 goals across their last seven Ligue 1 outings.

Lyon won the reverse fixture 3-0 but they may struggle for a clean sheet on Saturday as Nantes have at least scored in eight consecutive games. Lyon have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last four domestic away games so a 3-1 win for the visitors seems a reasonable correct score prediction.

Pavel Sulc is enjoying an excellent debut season with Lyon after joining from Plzen in the summer with nine goals in 18 Ligue 1 games. The Czech midfielder has seven goals in his last nine games across all competitions and can add to his haul for the season at Nantes.
