Lyon vs PSG Prediction

Lyon have been in good touch recently, winning seven of their last eight league games. Their only loss in that period came against the Parisians last month. They have kept clean sheets in three of their five Coupe de France games this term.

After three consecutive losses across competitions, the Parisians have recorded two wins on the trot, scoring four goals and conceding once. They have suffered one loss in seven meetings with Lyon..

Manager Luis Enrique should welcome back key players, including Mbappe, for the last match of the season. Considering that and their winning record in league meetings against OL this season, the Parisians should record a comfortable win.

Prediction: Lyon 1-3 PSG
