Editor’s Prediction
No other French side can currently match Lyon’s level of dominance. Although the “Lionesses” have struggled to find the net in recent head-to-heads with PSG, they come into this Division 1 final still smarting from a heavy defeat in the Champions League final-a result that will only fuel their determination to respond as reigning domestic champions. Lyon have hit at least three goals in 12 of their last 13 home fixtures, and playing in front of their own fans is always a perfect occasion to deliver an attacking display. Our pick: Lyon Women’s individual total over 2.5 goals.
