Hoffenheim vs Lyon Preview
Hoffenheim will be eager to turn a corner after ending their four-game losing run with a 2-1 Bundesliga victory over Borussia M’gladbach. However, Christian Ilzer’s men still have work to do in Europe after suffering a 3-2 defeat to Besiktas in round two. Bernardo returns from his domestic suspension, while Hajdari and Wimmer are expected to miss out through injury. Hoffenheim’s defensive problems remain a major concern, as they have conceded 2.60 goals per home game, leaving little room for complacency against an in-form opponent.
Lyon, meanwhile, travel to Germany full of confidence after following their 3-2 Europa League triumph over Crystal Palace with a 2-1 Ligue 1 win against Nice. Les Gones have won three consecutive matches across competitions and will fancy their chances of extending that run. However, Openda, Ouedraogo and Tagliafico are unavailable through injury, potentially limiting Paulo Fonseca’s options. Lyon have been particularly solid away from home, conceding just 0.75 goals per game on the road.
Given Hoffenheim’s shaky defence and Lyon’s recent momentum, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win, alongside Over 2.5 goals and Both Teams to Score.
This Europa League match will be played on Thursday, 22 October 2026 at 20:00.
