Lyon and Angers have been unpredictable recently. While Lyon looks safe in 10th position, Angers are only five points away from relegation and must do all it takes to gather as many survival points in the remaining nine games. Read this preview to find out how we expect these teams to perform on matchday.

Lyon suffered a 3-0 humiliation in the reverse meeting, a result that was largely aggravated by losing forward, Maxwell Cornent to a red card five minutes after the hour mark. But with full squad available for this second leg encounter, the Ligue 1 giants look to turn the tables against struggling Angers. Here are the best free two predictions we have for this Ligue 1 duel.
Lyon to win by half-time @ 9/10 (1.90)
We anticipate home victory by half-time in this match. Despite Lyon’s current struggles with scoring goals, Angers should be an easy opponent and scoring early in the first half then extending the lead to full-time is a probable outcome for the hosts. They have only lost twice to Angers in 12 meetings, bagged two draws and eight wins in those duels. And despite losing the reverse game, Lyon defeated Angers in five of the last six top flight duels.
Under 2.5 @ 11/10 (2.10)
While we expect Lyon to get their revenge after losing the reverse game, it will come at a price. The hosts haven’t been very good in finishing and should struggle to score against Angers that has been mostly defensive. Angers may have been defeated in seven consecutive matches before a 1-0 win over Brest the last time out but the visitors have steadily improved in defending. Lyon’s goal scoring record in the last has been inconsistent and playing against Angers, a team that will fight for relegation survival points will not be an easy game.
