What to expect

We expect about 2.1 goals from Lyon and 1.2 from Fenerbahçe, so Lyon come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 3.4 goals in the game, and a match we expect to open up at both ends.

Our pick: Lyon to win. Lyon are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 2.1-1.2), and we make them about 65% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.

We put the chance of that landing at about 65 out of 100. The price on offer is 2.03, which works out at about 49 out of 100. That gap is the whole reason this is on the site: we rate it more likely than the price does, and the price looks good to us because of it.

What the numbers say
Lyon have won one of their last five.
Fenerbahçe have won one of their last five.

One thing to watch

A red card, a penalty or a smash-and-grab is all it takes for Fenerbahçe to spoil this. At around 65% on our numbers, it's a solid lean rather than a certainty.
