• Lyon have won six of their last 10 games in all competitions.
• Montpellier haven’t won a match since late November 2024.

Lyon’s Recent Resurgence

Lyon have been on fire in recent months, embarking on a nine-match unbeaten run, including five dominant victories. Their streak was brought to an end by league leaders PSG, but Lyon quickly returned to winning ways with a 2-1 triumph over Feignies-Aulnoye in the Coupe de France, led by a standout performance from Benrahma.

This fixture presents another golden opportunity for Lyon to continue their climb, especially against a Montpellier side that has endured a woeful season, sitting rock bottom with just nine points from 15 matches. Montpellier have managed only one win in their last 10 games across all competitions.

Nuamah’s Goal Drought Continues

Ernest Nuamah has had a challenging campaign, featuring in 10 league games for a total of just 346 minutes, mostly coming off the bench. He is yet to register a goal or an assist in Ligue 1, though he recently scored in the Europa League.

The young forward is expected to be rested for this match, meaning his wait for a breakthrough in the league will continue.

Team News

• Lyon will be without five players, including Wilfried Zaha, who is sidelined with an injury.
• Montpellier will miss four players due to various issues.

The Odds

According to 1xBet:
• Lyon Win: 1.40
• Montpellier Win: 8.00
• Draw: 5.74

Prediction

Given their recent form and Montpellier’s ongoing struggles, Lyon are heavy favorites to secure a convincing victory. Their attacking prowess and home advantage should be enough to see off Ligue 1’s bottom team.

Scoreline: Lyon 3-1 Montpellier
