OL Lyonnes (W) Team Overview
Lyon are managed by Jonathan Giraldez, and his side began the French league season with three big wins. They have scored 22 goals in three rounds. The most eye-catching result was a home match against last season's runners-up: Lyon thrashed FC Paris 7-1. The attack is built around Melchie Dumornay and Ada Hegerberg - the former has six league goals, the latter five. The defence is not flawless, however: Lyon have conceded one goal in each of the three rounds.

🔁 Update - 23 September, 6:10 UTC:
- Three players have returned to Lyon's squad after extended absences: defender Wendie Renard, midfielder Caroline Weir and forward Liana Joseph. Renard and Weir had missed the last three matches due to physical issues, while Joseph had not played for almost a year.
Corners Prediction
Servette earned at least two corners in 8 of their last 9 home matches. The bar here is low: the hosts only need two corners across the entire match. The bet is Servette Team Total Corners - Over 1.5.
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the most likely outcomes in this match are 1:2 (6.82%), 2:2 (6.65%) and 1:3 (5.57%). The first option - a narrow away win - comes out as the most probable of the three, though the difference in probability between the options is small.
Reliable Bet
Servette have not suffered a defeat by five goals or more in 50 consecutive matches. Home Win with Handicap (+5.5) adds another goal to that margin. The bet only loses if Lyon win by six goals or more. The odds are modest, but so is the risk.
⭐ Editor's Prediction
Servette have gone 50 consecutive matches without a game producing more than five goals. At home, that run stretches to 25 matches. Lyon are currently tearing teams apart in France, but their Champions League numbers tell a different story. In seven of their last matches in the competition, fewer than five goals were scored in total. Hiraldez's side themselves have not scored more than four in a European match in 13 consecutive games. We are not expecting Lyon to replicate their domestic scorelines in Geneva. The bet is Total Goals - Under 5.5. Predicted score - 1:4.
