Correct score prediction: Lyon 3-1 Angers
Lyon’s perfect start to the new league campaign came to an abrupt end in a 3-1 defeat at Rennes, where they surrendered a first-half lead, crumbling to three goals in the final 11 minutes. Despite this setback, they remain one of only two teams yet to concede the opening goal this season, a sign of resilience following a turbulent offseason that nearly saw them excluded from the French top-flight.
Lyon’s attacking intent remains clear, ranking among the league’s top three sides in shots on target (21). Angers, by contrast, have struggled to create chances under Alexandre Dujeux, attempting a league-low 30 shots after four matchdays. Since an opening-day win over Paris FC, they are winless in three games, and risk extending their poor away form to eight winless matches in nine Ligue 1 trips.
With Lyon’s superior firepower and Angers’ ongoing struggles, the hosts are strongly favoured to secure maximum points, especially given Les Scoistes’ winless record in their last five H2H meetings.
