Prediction and betting tips

PSG keep being undefeated for six months. Also, they have a streak of five victories and have won 15 of the last 16 matches. However, PSG have not played flawlessly in the last two matches. They had an equal fixture against Maccabi Haifa, won over Brestois with an only a one-goal difference

Lyon were strong in the most recent match against Monaco, but did not finish most of their moments successfully. Also, they were defeated by Lorient in the last game in spite of a confident attack. In the last H2H match, Lyon created a lot of moments, but did not finish most of them successfully again. I believe that both teams will play aggressively in the next game and we will see a total of over 2.5 goals, but Lyon are unlikely to beat PSG in their current form.
