Nantes vs Lyon Prediction and Betting Tips

The Ligue 1 returns to the fold with another round of matches this week as Nantes take on Lyon in an important clash at the Stade de la Beaujoire on Wednesday.

Nantes vs Lyon Preview

Nantes are currently in 15th place in the Ligue 1 standings and have not been at their best so far this season. The home side eased past Vire by a 2-0 margin last week and will look to achieve a similar result in this match.

Lyon, on the other hand, are in eighth place in the league table at the moment and have flattered to deceive over the past year. Les Gones suffered a shock 1-0 defeat at the hands of Clermont Foot in their previous league game and will need to bounce back this week.
