  • Venue: Parc Olympique Lyonnais (Lyon)

Lyon's future seems grim at the moment as the team have an enormous debt of more than 500 million euros. The French Football Association warned the club that had won seven Ligue 1 titles that they would be relegated if Lyon didn't improve their economic outlook. However, a terrible financial situation doesn't affect results, as they are in a solid sixth position in the domestic league. Lyon are on a good run of six games without defeat. In the previous match, they won 4-1 on the road in the Europa League against Qarabag. 

Nice are among the teams that could fight for the Champions League spot. They are currently fifth with only two points fewer than the fourth Lille. Nice were in a good run, five games without a loss until Thursday, when Franck Haise's team lost 4-1 at home in the Europa League against Rangers. The guests scored from almost every good opportunity, so Nice stayed empty-handed. It seems that success in the Europa League is not a high priority for Nice this season, so we should expect a better game on Sunday afternoon in Lyon. 

Lyon vs Nice pick: Over 2.5 goals

Lyon scored at least one goal in each of the last six matches. On the other hand, Nice scored seven goals in the previous four games. We should expect three or more goals in the upcoming tie between Lyon and Nice.

Lyon team news

Lyon doesn't have a big injury problems. Mahamadou Diawara will miss the upcoming Ligue 1 tie against Nice, while Gift Orban and Wilfried Zaha, who missed the Europa League trip to Azerbaijan, could return on Sunday. However, there are reports those two players could be cut in January, so maybe Lyon will focus on some other players for the rest of the year.
