Strasbourg vs Lyon prediction and betting tips on March 28, 2025
Game Prediction
In the 27th round of the French Ligue 1 on March 28, 2025, Strasbourg will face Lyon. The hosts are hopeful of securing a spot in the European cups, while the visitors aim to fight for third place - both sides need the victory.
Our prediction for the Strasbourg vs Lyon match
The club from "La Meinau" amassed only 39 points last season. However, that was enough to remain in Ligue 1, finishing in thirteenth place. The more ambitious visitors fell short at the start of the 2023/2024 season but eventually rose to sixth place.
Back then, the little-known manager, Pierre Sage, was the hero. However, in the new season, he gradually disappointed and was replaced by Fonseca. Paulo improved matters on the field but had a confrontation with a referee, resulting in a nine-month ban. Consequently, he now manages the game... from the team bus, via phone. And it is working: including successes in the Europa League with Steaua, they have won seven of their last eight matches, five of them consecutively. However, Roseniors' charges are also in form. After being knocked out of the cup by Angers, they have five victories and a stalemate with Brest. Instead of battling for survival, they can now compete for a European slot in the spring.
The home side is averaging almost 1.6 goals against opposing teams, while conceding significantly less, at 1.27. Lacazette and company, with similar defense, are notably better in attack, averaging 1.92 goals per half.
