Prediction: 2-2
Wolfsburg
Lyon and Wolfsburg go head to head at Groupama Stadium in a highly-anticipated friendly game. Les Gones kicked off their preseason with a routine 5-1 win over Bourg-en-Bresse, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Wolfsburg. The Ligue 1 outfit look sharp in front of goal, and we are positive that they will find the net in Saturday’s friendly. Moussa Dembele, who scored a brace in the triumph over Bourg en Bresse, will be one of the men to keep an eye on in the home team.
The Wolves, on the other hand, impressed in the 2020/21 Bundesliga campaign, with the team booking their place in the Champions League. Given Wolfsburg’s attacking potential, we believe that punters from all four corners of the world can find value in betting on over 2.5 goals. When the two teams met in a friendly three years ago Olympique Lyon recorded a 2-1 win over Wolfsburg.
