What to expect
We expect about 1.9 goals from Lyon and 1.4 from Crystal Palace, so Lyon come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 3.3 goals in the game, and a match we expect to open up at both ends.
Lyon come into this on two straight wins. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.
Our pick: Lyon to win. Lyon are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 1.9-1.4), and we make them about 48% 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 46 out of 100. The price on offer is 2.36, which works out at about 42 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.
