Best Tip: Lyon to win

As training goes on this week and the Lyon players prepare themselves for this game, the bookmakers are predicting success for them. The odds and our pre-match statistics below suggest the same, as does the historical head-to-head (H2H) data we factor into our predictive algorithms. The Groupama Stadium hasn't been a successful away day for Besiktas in the past, and we we think that will be the case again on Thursday night. A win / draw / win home win is the way to go.
