France Lyon vs Nice Prediction & Betting Discussion - 18 October 2026

[henrybailey58]

Lyon host Nice at Groupama Stadium on 18 October in a Ligue 1 Matchday 7 fixture. Lyon come into this match with the stronger recent form, including a 4-0 win over Rennes, and they have also won four of the last five league meetings against Nice. Ernest Nuamah has been in good form, while Loïs Openda and Pavel Šulc give Lyon additional attacking quality. Nice recently beat Lille 2-1, but their away form remains a concern because they failed to score in their two completed away league fixtures. Lyon’s recent home performances and defensive record give them the edge, although Nice still have counterattacking options through Mohammed Amoura, Gauthier Hein and Elye Wahi.
