Olympique Lyonnais vs Amiens Prediction 12 August 2018
On August 12 2018 at 14:00 at the Groupama Stadium in the first game week of the French national lite division Ligue 1 the local Olympique are playing against their guests Amiens. We really don’t think that the bronze medalists of the previous season will lose their chance to get three points in the game against the beginners of the previous season of the Ligue 1.
The Tailors had a comparatively good pervious season. They deservedly made it to the group stage of the Champions League and yet after that they were unexpectedly kicked-off from the Europa League Round of 16 by CSKA Moscow. The aims of Lyon are the same this season and they are participating well in the Euro Cups and taking the highest place they can in the national elite division. Moreover, they try to achieve their aims showing as spectacular performance as they can.
As for Amiens, they can’t do the same, as it seems to us. They need to try their best not to be relegated to the Ligue 2 again after one season in the Ligue 1. They finished the previous season on the 13th position in the standings and they chose to defend more than attack. That style is rather efficient when they play against the middle-peasants of the outsiders while the grands mostly outplay Amiens even at their domestic stadium.
Lyon are the absolute favorites of the upcoming match. It’s hard to compare the squad of the teams as they are totally different in skill and class. Moreover, Lyon are playing at home this time. We think that the hosts are going to win this time and they will probably manage to do it with a comparatively big score.
