Lyon take on Go Ahead Eagles in the Europa League round 6 in what is expected to be an easy 3-1 home win. Lyon’s strength in depth gives them a clear edge. Les Gones have been solid at home, winning 3 of their last 4 home games and scoring 2.25 goals per home match on average. Despite absences like Fofana, Kluivert, Mangala, Nuamah, and Tessmann, Lyon’s attacking quality and tactical flexibility should compensate for missing starters.
Go Ahead Eagles travel with several absentees, including Nauber, Saathof, Tenstedt, and Weijenberg, and their poor away form—0 wins in 5 away matches—doesn’t inspire confidence. They have struggled defensively on the road, conceding 2.2 goals per away game, which could be exploited by a home side capable of creating chances consistently. It has to be noted that the two clubs meet for the first time in European competitions.
Given Lyon’s attacking stats and Eagles’ shaky defence, both Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals betting markets are worth considering. Additionally, Lyon/Lyon betting option boasts big value.
This Europa League match will be played on Thursday 11 December 2025 at 20:00.
