Lyon v Le Havre prediction

What to expect

We expect about 1.8 goals from Lyon and 0.9 from Le Havre, so Lyon come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 2.8 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: Lyon to win. Lyon are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 1.8-0.9), and we make them about 60% 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 60 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.48, which works out at about 68 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.

What the numbers say

One thing to watch

A red card, a penalty or a smash-and-grab is all it takes for Le Havre to spoil this. The price is shorter than our own read of about 60%, so there's less value here than the number suggests.
