Juventus-Olympique Lyonnais betting preview

Juventus appeared subdued in their 1-0 win at Lyon in the first leg of the Europa Leauge quarterfinal match. Can they bring out their real dominant self in the second leg? All eyes are on the Juventus Stadium on Thursday when these teams meet again. A draw will be enough for Juve. Still, they would want an emphatic win that will send a strong message to their remaining opponents in the league.

 

The last few weeks have been chaotic for Juventus, but they still have a healthy lead in the Serie A. They will cruise to yet another title unless they suffer an unexplainable slump in form. But things are different in the Europa League. What they have is a slender one-goal lead. If they lose this match, they are likely to face exit.

 

That is what offers hope for Lyon. Despite having conceded a defeat in the home leg, they need to ensure just two things to enter the semi final: first, they win the match, and second, they score more than one goal. The problem for them is that Juventus is in such good form at home that they have not lost a home match in the entire season.

 

Juve will be happy to welcome back Arturo Vidal to the squad who missed their previous match due to suspension. Carlos Tevez is not out of injury scare, but he is expected to start. Even if he misses out, Fernando Llorente is in great nick.

 

Lyon will miss playmaker Yoann Gourcuff due to injury. That will affect the supply to their strikers Alexandre Lacazette and Bafetimbi Gomis. What they need is a wonder strike, like the one Jordan Ferri unleashed in the weekend game against Valenciennes.

Juventus-Olympique Lyonnais Prediction

Juventus is likely to score a professional win. They do not appear like letting this one go.
