Lyon VS Olympiakos Piraeus

Lyon and Olympiacos lock horns in this UEFA Europa League league phase round 1 clash at Parc Olympique Lyonnais early Friday morning Beijing time. Football fans and us serious bettors – with a long-term profit in mind – can expect a game of somewhat high level by this league's standards here.. The hosts are a French team, the visitors come from Greece. There is no doubt about the fact that Lyon are the better team here in terms of pure class! The French Ligue 1 is the 5th-best league on the planet, much better than the Greek Super League! Lyon finished the Ligue 1 season with four wins last season, ending up in 6th place. They took 53 points but their number of expected points (xPTS) was slightly lower.. However, this season has not started very well. However, in my expert opinion the bookies have overreacted to Lyon's struggles.. They are in 14th place at the moment with just four points in their pocket. However, their number of xPTS is significantly higher - 8.04 to be precise. Lyon reportedly have some financial problems and this has probably affected their performances on the pitch.. However, they still have many high-quality players in the squad and can improve in all areas of the game.. I believe Lyon will see the Europa League as an excellent chance of getting back on the winning track! They have loyal fans and Greek teams usually do not perform well on the road.. Odds of over 1.90 are available on the home win and we will eagerly take it! The French have a 57.50% chance of winning.

Let's not forget that according to a well-known and respected German website, Transfermarkt.com, Lyon are the much bigger team here! Indeed, their players have an estimated total market value of some 265 million euros! The Olympiacos squad is valued at around 95 million - which is a bit too high.. Olympiacos had a slightly disappointing season in the Super League, finishing in 3rd place – behind PAOK and AEK Athens. They did win the UEFA Europa Conference League though, beating Fiorentina in the final. This win probably still affects the odds the bookies offer on Olympiacos.. I would not say they were the best team in this competition though.. Indeed, for example in the 1/8-finals a much smaller Israeli team, Maccabi Tel Aviv, pushed the Greeks as clear underdogs on the betting market. The Israelis won the first leg 4-1 in Greece! However, Olympiacos, with quite a lot of luck on their side, won the second leg at a neutral location 4-1 after 90 minutes of play. An extra time followed and Olympiacos eventually qualified 7-5 on aggregate. The expected goals (xG) numbers were significantly more balanced than the actual score in this game -  2.55-1.44 to be precise. In their last game Lyon lost to Marseille, a very strong team, 2-3 at home. The hosts, however, should have won the game. Indeed, Lyon's Lacazette missed a penalty in the first half. Marseille's L. Balerdi was sent off in the first half. Lyon recorded 22 goal attempts and generated 3.11 in xG – Marseille's number was 0.88. Before this Lyon performed well, taking a point from Lens on the road as very clear underdogs. No goals were scored. The xG numbers were 0.73-0.61. In round 3 Lyon beat Strasbourg 4-3 at home generating more than the visitors in xG.

Olympiacos have failed to win their last two games. Before these games they beat three lowly opponents but did not fully impress me in any of the three games.. In their last game they lost to Aris 1-2 on the road as very clear favourites, priced around 1.65 to win on the betting market. Before this they faced a pretty poor team, Panetolikos, at home and no goals were scored. Yes, Olympiacos were the better teams but their odds of around 1.15 on the Olympiacos win were clearly too low! Olympiacos recorded only five shots on goal.. They too can improve as they have skilled players but their teamplay is not yet at a great level..

里昂VS奥林匹亚科斯

北京时间周五凌晨，里昂和奥林匹亚科斯将在里昂奥林匹克公园球场进行欧联杯第一轮比赛。足球迷和我们这些认真的投注者——考虑到长期的利润——可以期待一场以这个联赛的标准来看有点高水平的比赛。东道主是法国队，客队来自希腊。毫无疑问，从纯粹的水平来看，里昂是这里更好的球队!法甲联赛是世界上排名第五的联赛，比希腊超级联赛要好得多!里昂上赛季以四胜结束了法甲联赛，排名第六。他们拿了53分，但他们的期望分数(xPTS)略低。然而，这个赛季的开局并不好。然而，在我的专家看来，博彩公司对里昂的挣扎反应过度了。目前他们仅以4分的成绩排在第14位。但是，它们的xPTS数量要高得多——准确地说是8.04个。据报道，里昂有一些财政问题，这可能影响了他们在球场上的表现。然而，他们仍然有很多高质量的球员，在比赛的各个方面都可以提高。我相信里昂会把欧联杯看作是回到胜利轨道上的绝佳机会!他们有忠实的球迷，希腊球队通常在客场表现不佳。赔率超过1.90是可用的主场胜利，我们将热切地接受它!法国队夺冠的几率为57.50%。

别忘了，根据德国知名网站Transfermarkt.com的数据，里昂在这里的实力要大得多!事实上，他们的球员估计总市值约为2.65亿欧元!奥林匹亚科斯队的价值约为9500万欧元，这有点太高了。奥林匹亚科斯本赛季在中超联赛中表现不佳，排名第三，落后于PAOK和AEK雅典。尽管如此，他们还是赢得了欧联杯，在决赛中击败了佛罗伦萨。这场胜利可能仍然会影响博彩公司对奥林匹亚科斯的赔率。我不会说他们是这场比赛中最好的球队。事实上，例如在1/8决赛中，一支规模小得多的以色列球队——特拉维夫马卡比(Maccabi Tel Aviv)，在博彩市场上把希腊人视为明显的劣势。以色列人在第一回合以4比1战胜希腊!然而，幸运的奥林匹亚科斯队在90分钟的比赛后，在一个中立的位置以4比1赢得了第二回合的胜利。加时赛之后，奥林匹亚科斯最终以总比分7-5晋级。在这场比赛中，预期进球(xG)数字比实际得分(2.55-1.44)要平衡得多。在上一场比赛中，里昂主场以2比3输给了实力很强的马赛队。然而，东道主应该赢得这场比赛。事实上，里昂的拉卡泽特在上半场错失了一个点球。马赛的L. Balerdi在上半场被罚下。里昂在本赛季有22次进球，创造了3.11个进球，马赛的数字是0.88个。在此之前，里昂表现得很好，在客场从伦斯手中拿了一分。没有进球。xG值为0.73 ~ 0.61。在第3轮比赛中，里昂主场4-3击败斯特拉斯堡，比客队在世界杯上的进球还要多。

奥林匹亚科斯最近两场比赛都未能获胜。在这些比赛之前，他们击败了三个实力较弱的对手，但在三场比赛中没有一场给我留下深刻的印象。在上一场比赛中，他们以1比2的比分输给了阿里斯，在博彩市场上，他们的胜率在1.65左右。在此之前，他们在主场面对一支相当糟糕的球队，帕内托利科斯，没有进球。是的，奥林匹亚科斯是更好的球队，但他们对奥林匹亚科斯获胜的赔率只有1.15左右，这显然太低了!奥林匹亚科斯只射正了5次。他们也可以提高，因为他们有技术娴熟的球员，但他们的团队合作还没有达到很高的水平。
