Maccabi Tel Aviv vs Lyon Prediction (27.11.2025)

Maccabi Tel Aviv are under serious pressure as they still have not won a match in the tournament. Their recent results show difficulties in both phases of the game. The 0:2 loss to Aston Villa came after defeats to Midtjylland and Dinamo Zagreb, where the team experienced issues with defensive stability. The 0:0 draw with PAOK brought a glimmer of hope, but failed to lay the foundation for a better run, and the attacking potential in these matches remains limited.

Lyon enter this match with a much more balanced overall picture, despite the 0:2 loss to Betis in their last match. Prior to that, the French team recorded three consecutive victories built on solid defense. The 2:0 success against Salzburg clearly demonstrated superiority and control over the course of the match, while the 1:0 win against Utrecht brought another clean sheet. Even after the last setback, Lyon continue to look like a team that knows how to manage the pace and limit their opponents.

The difference in the current state of the two teams is evident. Maccabi Tel Aviv are still searching for their first victory in the tournament and are struggling against better-organized opponents, while Lyon demonstrate stability and discipline in a large part of their recent matches. It is this resilience in the guests' play that leads me to predict a victory for Lyon in this match.
