Leipzig vs Lyon Match Preview

In the first round, Leipzig registered an important win 1-2 over Benfica on the road. They scored twice in the second half taking a secure lead. The home team scored at the 82th minute but they couldn't change the situation. In Bundesliga, they suffered their first loss to Schalke last weekend and lost the first place of the table. Now they are one point below Bayern Munich. They seem more than ready to proceed one more step and have as a target the first place in the group.

Lyon continue their journey with a lot of ups and downs season. They aren't doing well since at the start of French Ligue 1 they are 9 points below the first place. They didn't register a win in the past 7 games in all competitions, they have 4 draws and 3 defeats. They didn't even manage to win Zenit at home in the opening game of the Champions League (1-1 final result).

There aren't any h2h games between the two teams. Leipzig are a quality team, who despite their first loss in the domestic League, they remain a strong title contestant. And of course, they will fight for a successful European journey. Leipzig to win at 1.66 with a 6 points stake is my call.
