Fenerbahçe and Olympique Lyon played a fairly even first clash in the Champions League playoffs, which ended in a 1:1 draw. Now the return match is set to take place on French soil, and the home advantage logically gives Lyon a slight edge. However, Fenerbahçe has a strong enough squad, including in defense, to put up serious resistance.
The draw from the first match suggests more cautionOlympique Lyon was not particularly convincing during their away match against Sparta Prague in the previous qualifying round, but then they won the return match at home 3:0. This time, however, a similar scenario seems less likely, as Fenerbahçe is a more solid opponent. The Turkish team enters with increased confidence after a convincing 4:2 victory over Konyaspor a few days ago.
Prediction: Under 3.5 goalsAfter the 1:1 draw from the first meeting, I expect both teams to be more cautious, as any mistake could prove decisive. Lyon remains a slight favorite due to the home advantage, but Fenerbahçe seems capable of making the return match very competitive.
