Lyon vs Reims Prediction: Ligue 1 Match on 27.05.2023

Ligue 1 Preview

The stakes will be extremely low at Montpellier on Saturday, as there is little to play for when Nice come to town. Montpellier have already secured their top-flight status, as they sit 14 points above the drop zone. Meanwhile, they face an uphill struggle to end the season in the top half of the standings. The hosts come into this match in solid recent form, as they have lost just once across their previous five matches. Meanwhile, over that same period, they have registered three wins, which includes a victory in their most recent match against Nantes. Montpellier’s recent home form has been very strong, as they have landed four victories from their previous seven matches at Stade de la Mosson. That is an excellent return to form after failing to win in their previous six. [news_button][/news_button] Nice will be the final visitors to Montpellier this season, as they look to end the campaign in strong form. They have gone two without a victory in Ligue 1, and have landed just two victories over their last five. Nice will finish outside of the European spots this season, as they can only pick up a maximum of 58 points. Their attacking players are out of form, as they have failed to score in each of their last two matches. However, they haven’t gone three matches without scoring in Ligue 1 since December 2021.

Montpellier vs Nice Head to Head

Nice caused a big upset in the previous encounter this season, as they registered a 6-1 home win. That was the first time Montpellier had allowed six goals since October 2016. However, Montpellier has recorded 14 home league wins against Nice; their most against any single team in the top-flight.

Montpellier vs Nice Prediction

There is little to play for this weekend between these sides, which should make for an entertaining clash. However, a chance will be taken on the home side, as they have already won nine league matches this calendar year. Make sure to bet on Montpellier vs Nice with 22Bet!

Lyon will play their final home match of the 2022-23 season on Saturday, as they chase a second straight victory. Reims will be the visitors, as they look to cap off a memorable campaign with a victory that could put them on course for a top-half finish.

Montpellier vs Nice Prediction: Ligue 1 Match on 27.05.2023

Ligue 1 Preview

It has been a disappointing campaign for Lyon, as they have failed to push themselves back into a Champions League spot in Ligue 1. However, they could yet end the campaign in a European position if they are able to claim back-to-back wins to end the season. Lyon currently sits four points off the Europa Conference League spot, meaning that they will also be relying on favours from elsewhere over the final two matchdays.

The hosts at least come into this match after winning three of their last four matches. But, that has only papered over the cracks of a poor campaign overall. Lyon has lost eleven times this season, which is the second most in Ligue 1 history in the 21st century. But, the fact that they have scored eight goals across their previous two home matches does at least offer a glimmer of hope.

Reims has been one of the stories of the season in Ligue 1 this term, as they have done incredibly well to maintain their top-flight status in the French top-flight. They come into this fixture sitting eleventh overall, and a victory could lift them back up to eighth in the standings this weekend.

However, they have been slightly inconsistent over their last five matches, as they have registered just a single win. They also come into this fixture having failed to win their last two matches. But, they have picked up 51 points this season, which is their second-most in Ligue 1 history in the 21st century.

Lyon vs Reims Head to Head

Lyon has a poor record in this fixture, as they have landed just one win across their last eight matches against Reims since their return to the top-flight. Reims landed a 2-1 win in the previous clash between the sides in Lyon, but they haven’t won back-to-back away games against their rivals since 1961.

Lyon vs Reims Prediction

While Lyon may not have the best record in this fixture, we will be siding with the hosts this weekend after their impressive recent home performances. We could see another high-scoring clash, with Lyon landing victory and both teams finding the net.
