Man United welcome Lyon to Old Trafford with all to play for at an aggregate score of 2-2.

Man United vs Lyon Prediction

  • Manchester United were pegged back late on in Lyon last week and they followed up the 2-2 draw in France with a 4-1 thumping at Newcastle.
  • Defeat at St. James' Park means they are winless in four ahead of the second leg welcome of the French outfit.
  • Lyon were 3-1 winners at Auxerre at the weekend to make it seven wins from their last nine in all competitions.
  • Paulo Fonseca takes his men to Manchester having overseen four wins from the last five away matches.
  • While United have struggled this season, they remain unbeaten in the Europa League, winning four of five at Old Trafford in the competition, and should have what it takes to get the job done on home turf.

Score Prediction: Man United 2-1 Lyon

At the time of publishing it is a best price of 10/1 with Unibet.

  • Despite their inconsistent Premier League form (14th place, winless in four competitive games), United have been more resilient in the Europa League, remaining unbeaten this season. The 2-2 draw in the first leg gives them a slight edge with home advantage, and Ruben Amorim’s side will be desperate to salvage their season through European success. Lyon, while in good form (eight wins in last ten games), have struggled away against top sides, and United’s home crowd could tip the scales.
  •  Lyon’s 21-year-old star Rayan Cherki has been in sensational form, with 11 goals and 17 assists this season. He scored a stoppage-time equalizer in the first leg and followed it with a goal against Auxerre, making it three consecutive games with a goal. Cherki has registered 10 goal contributions (2G, 8A) in 10 Europa League appearances and is likely to test United’s shaky defense, which has been exposed recently (conceding four at Newcastle). 
  • Garnacho has shown promise for United in recent games and has been one of their key attacking threats, with 10 goals and seven assists across all competitions this season. He scored in United’s recent 4-1 loss to Newcastle and has had multiple shots in each of his last five Europa League games, reaching five shots in two of them.
