Lyon vs Reims Prediction and Betting Tips (09.02.2025)

Command Analysis

Lyon

France

Current form

Somehow, in 2025, Lyon stalled again. Having won 1-0 in the first match of the new year against Montpellier, the "children" began a losing streak that lasts seven matches in a row.: three defeats and four draws. It is impossible to ignore the fact that in this series, if the hosts of the upcoming match score, then the opponent is also different. And if he doesn't hit the opponent's goal, he doesn't miss either.

Despite the unsuccessful unbeaten streak, the team has been unbeaten on its own field for 3.5 months — seven matches. During this time, we managed to win four times and a draw was recorded three times.

Disqualifications and injuries

All players are currently in formation.

Interesting betting trends

Lyon does not lose seven matches in a row at home.
In the last three games, the hosts both scored and conceded

Approximate composition: Perry– Maitland-Niles, Chaleta-Tsar, Niahate, Tagliafico – Tolisso, Matic, Veretou–Nuama, Lacazette, Benrahma.

Reims

France

Current form

Reims, like its upcoming opponent, has forgotten what winning the national championship means. The club's winless streak lasts for nine consecutive matches, in which there were five draws and nine defeats. It is noteworthy that the club shows better results on the road than on its own field, and at the end of January, even PSG could not defeat Pierre Saj's wards in front of local fans.

So far, the team feels insecure about the championship. After 20 matches played with 22 points scored, the team is on the 13th line in the standings and is only four points ahead of Saint-Etienne, which is located in the junction zone.

Disqualifications and injuries

Darami, Khadra and Teuma will not play in the match due to injuries, and Okumu received a red card in the last round of Ligue 1.

Interesting betting trends

Reims cannot win away in regular time for three consecutive games.
The visitors have conceded in seven of the last eight matches.

Approximate line-up: Diouf - Akieme, Kipre, Zaba, Buta - Edo, Patrick - Nikamura, Manetzi, Junya - Salama.

Tip and bets

1.68Both will score

Lyon is not perfect in defense both on the road and on their own field, and Reims does not close in their penalty area on a visit, and this confirms that the team was able to score in three of the last four away matches. And at the Olympic Lion Park stadium, in three of the last five meetings, the rivals scored against each other. We believe they will be able to distinguish themselves this time.

Our forecast is that both will score with a coefficient of 1.68

1.6handicap (+1.5) for Reims

Betting on the outcome

Lyon is the favorite in the upcoming match, and it's understandable why, because they had two defeats in Ligue 1 only in August and September last year. In turn, Reims is well aware that losing is fraught with the fact that teams from the relegation zone will be able to pull up, so it is unlikely that the guests will play with their hands down in the upcoming match. We expect a fierce fight, and if Reims loses, it will be by no more than a one-goal margin.

The second bet is the Asian handicap (+1.5) on Reims with a coefficient of 1.60

Betting on corners

Lyon takes an average of 6.2 corners, while Reims takes 5.1. The figures are high. Based on these figures, as well as the fact that the game should be productive, we come to the conclusion that there will be a lot of corners.

The forecast is a total of more than 9.5 corners with a coefficient of 1.75
