These teams have met just twice thus far, back in 2013, at the Europa League Group stage. In France, Lyon won 1:0, and we saw a goalless draw in Spain.
Real Betis team overview
Real Betis have been between fifth and seventh place in the past five years, constantly securing Europe. Although it is still early, the Andalusian team opened the season well as they are currently in fifth place with 19 points - three points away from the Champions League spots. In the Europa League, they had a solid start. We believe they should secure the next phase as they will have a fairly easy schedule after the Lyon game - FC Utrecht, Dinamo Zagreb, PAOK, and Feyenoord.
After a 3:0 vs Mallorca, coach Manuel Pellegrini spoke to the media. He said they played a very complete game and had a lot of precision in the finishes. The coach emphasized the importance of three points, which will keep them in the European spots in La Liga.

Lyon team overview
Lyon have been between sixth and eighth place in Ligue 1 in the past four seasons. This year, Les Gones are around their usual place from the past seasons as they are in sixth place with 20 points from 11 matches - only four away from the top spot! And in the Europa League, they have been absolutely great, winning all three games with a 5:0 goal difference. With a possible win, they would be almost certain to advance at least to the 1/16 Finals.
After a goalless draw in the previous game vs Brest, goalkeeper Dominik Greif spoke to the media. He was very happy with a clean sheet, but said it was a difficult night for them after receiving an early red card. "We showed fighting spirit and a perfect attitude - something that was missing in Rennes and Paris," the goalkeeper added.

Prediction
This year, Real Betis scored at least one goal in 13 out of 15 games across the competitions - 87%. And in the Europa League, they have scored four goals in the first three games - 1.3 per game.
Lyon scored at least one goal in 13 out of 14 games across the competitions. Les Gones only failed to score in the last game vs Brest on the road, where they received a red card after only eight minutes. If it weren't for that, they would probably have scored in all 14 games this season. In the Europa League, Lyon won all three games and have scored five goals - 1.7 per game.
Considering both teams' offensive performances thus far and all the above, we believe that both teams to score is the safest option for this Europa League tie.
3 Reasons why we should see both teams scoring
- Real Betis scored at least one goal in 13 out of 15 games this season
- Lyon scored in 13 out of 14 games across the competitions
- Lyon scored two (or more) goals per game in five out of the last six games
