Lyon vs Manchester United Prediction & Betting tips
Thursday evening at 20:00 the headline match of the Europa League quarter-finals will be played, with Lyon hosting Manchester United at home. The most recent clash took place in 2023, in a friendly match that Manchester United won 1-0. In addition to this clash, there have been four other duels in the UEFA Champions League, in 2004 and 2008, and Lyon managed to not lose at home to United at home, where there were two draws, but on the other hand they lost each time away in England. The team that will qualify further will play in the semi-finals with the winner between Rangers and Athletic Bilbao.
Lyon:
Lyon is one of the most in-form teams in Europe at the moment, and in the last ten games they have suffered two defeats and managed eight more victories. Lyon comes after a very important victory in Ligue 1, where they won 2-1 at home against Lille and climbed to 5th place in the standings, being only four points from 2nd place. Returning to the Europa League, Lyon was directly qualified for the round of 16, where they had a fairly easy mission in the double with FCSB which they defeated in both legs, 3-1 away and 4-0 at home in the return. In the next match, Lyon will play away against Auxerre.
Manchester United:
On the other hand, Manchester United’s main objective is to win the Europa League, which is a good way to play in the UEFA Champions League next season. In the most recent match, Manchester United drew at home in the derby with Manchester City in a match in which no goals were scored. In the round of 16, Manchester United eliminated Real Sociedad after a 1-1 away draw in the first leg and a 4-1 home win in the second leg. In the next match, Manchester United will play away against Newcastle.
