Lyon dey ready to host Nantes for the 7th round of Ligue 1 on Sunday, October 6, and the match promise to be one interesting clash. Lyon, wey dey on a winning streak of three games, dey look to extend their winning run to four games, especially since dem dey play at home where dem dey confident.
Nantes, on the other hand, dey sit 7th in the Ligue 1 table and dem have been consistent in picking up points, but dem never face any strong team yet. Dis match against Lyon go be their first real challenge. Nantes dey deal with some injury concerns, including defender Santons and forward Mohamed who dey out, while striker Coco dey suspended. There be doubt if defender Duverne and forwards Kadewere and Girassi go fit to play.
Lyon have been doing well in the Europa League, winning matches against Olympiacos and Rangers, but in Ligue 1, things no dey go as smoothly. Dem currently sit mid-table with mixed results. Defender Clinton Mata and midfielder Matic dey out due to injury, but dem might return soon.
Predictions dey suggest say Lyon go win dis match 2-1. Lyon have scored at least two goals in their last four matches, and dem likely to score more than 1.5 goals in dis game. Nantes have let in goals in their last four matches, and dem likely to score too, making ‘both teams to score’ a good bet.
Both teams have strong corner stats, with Lyon averaging 10.2 corners per game and Nantes getting about 9.6 corners. Betting on more than 9.5 corners in total dey look like a good choice.
