Europa League Betting Preview: Lyon vs Go Ahead Eagles

French Ligue 1 club Lyon host Dutch Eredivisie team Go Ahead Eagles at Parc Olympique Lyonnais, with kick-off set for 15:00 on Thursday 11 December.

Backing Lyon -2 on the Asian Handicap at -116 means we need the favourites to beat Go Ahead Eagles by three goals or more to win this bet. We can get our money back if there’s a winning margin of two.

Lyon were beaten in their last game. On their travels, they suffered a 1-0 Ligue 1 loss against Lorient at Stade du Moustoir. The Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes club had most of the ball boasting 60% possession and five shots on target.

Go Ahead Eagles played out a 2-2 Eredivisie draw in their previous game. This was on their travels to AFAS Stadion, with AZ Alkmaar the opponents. GAE were 51% in the possession stakes and managed seven shots on goal, with Melle Meulensteen finding the net twice.
