Lyon is finally showing improvement, and so far is doing great in the Europa League. Over the weekend, they defeated Lorient 4-0 as guests, marking their fifth consecutive victory in all competitions with a total goal difference of 14:2. In the Europa League, they also beat Rangers 4-1 as guests and defeated Olympiacos 2-0 at home. With these performances, they definitely look ready for another victory now against Besiktas.
Besiktas has had a strong start to the new season, remaining unbeaten in the Turkish league and currently in second place. However, their performance in the Europa League has been completely different. The team suffered a heavy 0-4 defeat to Ajax in their only visit to the group stage so far, and in their other match, they lost 1-3 at home to Eintracht. Seven years ago, they were eliminated by Lyon in the quarterfinals of the same competition.
Prediction: Lyon to win and over 1.5 goalsLyon has had strong performances in their last few matches and has been doing quite well in the Europa League so far, unlike Besiktas. Following this trend, they should be able to celebrate another victory now.
