This Europa League match brings Olympique Lyonnais up against Crystal Palace, two teams that both just came through their own cup games with wins. This one is therefore a fixture where both sides need to pick up points before going deeper into the competition. Olympique Lyonnais just lost 1-2 in their latest league game, but before that they picked up a comfortable home win, while Crystal Palace just won 3-1 in the Premier League and are still unbeaten in their own European cup games. Both have attacks that genuinely score, with Lyon putting 6.2 shots on target per game over their last 10, while Palace prefer to wait for their moment and hold less of the ball (44.2%). This game should open up early, because both teams tend to concede in the first half, especially Palace, who concede 28% of all their goals in the 31-45 minute window. If Lyon control the game and push high as the expected line-up suggests, there should be a fair few goals, and if Palace get quick counter-attacking moments, it will open up even more.
