Predictions for Lyon vs Ludogorets

For the game Lyon vs Ludogorets, we predict a narrow win for Lyon or a high-scoring draw, and here’s why. Lyon has remained unbeaten in their last six home matches, demonstrating their strong home form. Ludogorets, on the other hand, comes with an impressive away record, winning four consecutive matches on the road. With both teams struggling to find the back of the net in their last Europa League outings, this clash could be decided by fine margins.

Prediction: Lyon to Win or Draw – 1.44

We also predict this match will produce fewer than three goals, and this is why. Despite their solid records, both teams have struggled in front of goal recently, with Lyon failing to score in two of their last Europa League matches and Ludogorets yet to find the net in their away fixtures this season.

Prediction: Under 3 Goals – 1.52

Match Preview for Lyon vs Ludogorets

Lyon: The French side sits 5th in the Europa League standings with 14 points, just behind the top four. Lyon’s last group game ended in a frustrating goalless draw, extending their winless streak to four matches. Despite this, they remain a force at home, scoring 1.77 goals per game and showing resilience with a 33% success rate in overcoming a 0-1 deficit. Rayan Cherki remains a key creative outlet with three assists so far.

Ludogorets: The Bulgarian champions are enjoying an impressive campaign, especially away from home, where they have a four-game winning streak. They have not lost in their last eight away matches, showcasing their ability to grind out results. However, their inability to score in this season’s away fixtures in the Europa League could be their undoing. Marcus Erick has been a key playmaker with two assists, but the team needs to step up offensively.
