Lyon vs Paris FC Prediction and Betting Tips 8 March 2026

Olympique Lyon are in excellent home form, winning all five home games recently, scoring an average of 2.8 goals per home match and conceding just 0.6. As Paris FC do not seem to be at their sharpest, our prediction firmly points toward a 2-1 home win. Les Gones' attacking threat is heightened with Endrick on the pitch, though left-back Nicolas Tagliafico is out due to injury. Lyon’s matches often see goals at both ends (BTTS 40% at home, 50% overall), with clean sheets in 60% of home games.

Paris FC have mixed form, winning 1 of their last 5, and averaging 1.33 points per away game, scoring 0.83 goals per away match while conceding 1.0. They face a setback as Thibault De Smet is suspended. Paris FC’s games occasionally see both teams score (BTTS 50% away). There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team.

Given Lyon's fine home form and attacking quality, we are tempted to bet on Home Win, alongside Lyon Over 1.5 goals and Over 2.5 goals (both teams score regularly, and past encounters have been high-scoring).

This Ligue 1 match will be played on Sunday 8 March 2026 at 19:45.
