Match description
PSG are clear favorites: the hosts have won 5 of their last 5 matches and scored 14 goals in that period, while Lyon have 1 win and only 3 goals in their last 5 matches. At the Parc des Princes PSG average 2.62 goals per game and 69% possession, registering 19.92 shots with 7.31 on target, whereas Lyon away average 1.33 goals, 10.87 shots and 4.67 on target. Defensively the hosts also dominate: PSG concede 0.62 goals at home on average, have 69% clean sheets and 0% of matches without scoring, while Lyon concede 1.27 goals away and have 33% of away matches without scoring. The quality gap is confirmed by xG — PSG record average xG 2.3 at home versus 1.32 xG for Lyon away, and in the last 5 matches PSG conceded 1 goal compared to 4 conceded by Lyon. Considering PSG’s 85% home-win rate versus Lyon’s 33% away-win rate and an average of 3 points per game for PSG in the last 5 matches versus 1 point for Lyon, I tip a PSG win.
