Command Analysis
Paris Saint-Germain
FranceCurrent form
A few days ago, PSG thrashed Salzburg 3-0 away in the sixth round of the Champions League. This victory clearly gave confidence to Luis Enrique charges, and now they will try to build on their success on the domestic stage, where the Parisians have absolutely no problems. After 14 matches played, the team is in first place in Ligue 1, four points ahead of their closest pursuer, and this is despite the fact that the current champion of the country has one game in hand. They managed to score 37 goals in all matches, and conceded 11. Both figures are the best in the national championship.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mayulu and Kimpembe are injured and will not take to the field.
Interesting trends for betting
- PSG have scored in their last 11 home games
- The hosts have conceded in three of their last four games
Probable line-up: Donnarumma - Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes - Neves, Vitinha, Zaire-Emery - Lee, Asensio, Barcola.
Lyon
FranceCurrent form
Lyon played in the Europa League a few days ago. In a tough fight on their home field, the team won against Eintracht with a score of 3:2. Over six rounds in the European Cup, the "weavers" have scored 13 points and are confidently holding on to the playoff zone, occupying fourth place in the tournament table among 36 teams.
Lyon are in fifth place in Ligue 1, but are actively fighting to get into the top 4, which would allow them to play at least in the Champions League qualification. In the last round, the team had absolutely no problems away from home against Angers, winning the match with a score of 3:0. The upcoming opponent is of a completely different caliber, and at least not losing would be considered a huge achievement.
Disqualifications and injuries
All players are in action.
Interesting trends for betting
- Lyon are unbeaten for nine games in a row
- The visitors have scored in all matches of the unbeaten streak
Probable line-up: Perry - Maitland-Niles, Çaleta-Car, Niahate, Tagliafico - Veretout, Matic, Tolisso - Cherki, Lacazette, Fofana.

1.76Tip and bets
Many are inclined to think that the match will be high in terms of the number of goals scored. We do not agree with this opinion. In five of the last six games in the championship with the participation of PSG, no more than three goals were scored. At the same time, there were no large high totals with the participation of Lyon in nine of the 14 rounds played. We believe that in the upcoming meeting, more than three goals will not be scored either.
Our prediction is under 3.5 goals with odds of 2.07
Bet on the outcome
Lyon have not known defeat for a long time, demonstrating bright and effective football, so it is safe to say that the “weavers” are approaching the upcoming match with PSG in an excellent mood.
PSG are not playing perfectly and often make mistakes both in their own penalty area and in the opponent. In two of the last three matches on their home field, the Parisians were unable to confidently win against Nantes (1:1) and Lens (1:0). It is unlikely that they will be able to do this against Lyon, which has gained momentum.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (+1.5) on Lyon with odds of 1.83
Bet on corners
We believe that the final match of the 15th round will not be boring in terms of scoring chances, and the opponents will be able to make a decent number of corner kicks between them.
Our prediction is total over 9.5 corners with odds of 1.74
