Prediction: Lyon Wins
On a weekend that Marseille and PSG face off, Lyon are among the sides looking to benefit. A win here, coupled with Marseille dropping points, will mean Les Gones move to third. Should Marseille and Lyon win, Lyon will have closed in on PSG in the title race.
In this encounter Lyon will feel disappointed if they don’t bag three points. All seems to be written in their favor, except that they will not be playing at home. They may not need that though, facing the league’s poorest hosts. Our prediction for Nantes v Lyon is that Lyon wins.
Comprehensive Prediction Analysis:

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026/02/01 | Ligue 1 | Lorient | 2-1 (HT 1-0 FT 2-1) | FC Nantes |
| 2026/01/25 | Ligue 1 | FC Nantes | 1-4 (HT 1-3 FT 1-4) | OGC Nice |
| 2026/01/19 | Ligue 1 | FC Nantes | 1-2 (HT 0-1 FT 1-2) | Paris FC |
| 2026/01/12 | Coupe de France | FC Nantes | 1-1 (PEN 3-5, HT 0-1 FT 1-1) | OGC Nice |
| 2026/01/04 | Ligue 1 | Marseille | 0-2 (HT 0-1 FT 0-2) | FC Nantes |
| 2025/12/21 | Coupe de France | Concarneau | 3-5 (HT 2-3 FT 3-5) | FC Nantes |
| 2025/12/13 | Ligue 1 | Angers SCO | 4-1 (HT 1-0 FT 4-1) | FC Nantes |
| 2025/12/07 | Ligue 1 | FC Nantes | 1-2 (HT 1-1 FT 1-2) | RC Lens |
| 2025/12/01 | Ligue 1 | Lyon | 3-0 (HT 0-0 FT 3-0) | FC Nantes |
| 2025/11/24 | Ligue 1 | FC Nantes | 1-1 (HT 0-1 FT 1-1) | Lorient |
Nantes are coming off yet another defeat. This time they lost 2-1 at Lorient, after back-to-back home defeats earlier. Les Canaris have had a very poor season, only managing three wins from the opening 20 league matches.
There isn’t much hope going into this one either, as they are the poorest performers on home soil, only winning once in 10 outings.
Lyon
| Date | Competition | Home | Score | Away |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026/02/05 | Coupe de France | Lyon | 2-0 (HT 0-0 FT 2-0) | Stade Lavallois MFC |
| 2026/02/01 | Ligue 1 | Lyon | 1-0 (HT 1-0 FT 1-0) | LOSC Lille |
| 2026/01/30 | UEFA Europa League | Lyon | 4-2 (HT 1-1 FT 4-2) | PAOK Saloniki |
| 2026/01/26 | Ligue 1 | Metz | 2-5 (HT 1-4 FT 2-5) | Lyon |
| 2026/01/23 | UEFA Europa League | Young Boys | 0-1 (HT 0-1 FT 0-1) | Lyon |
| 2026/01/19 | Ligue 1 | Lyon | 2-1 (HT 2-0 FT 2-1) | Stade Brestois 29 |
| 2026/01/12 | Coupe de France | LOSC Lille | 1-2 (HT 1-2 FT 1-2) | Lyon |
| 2026/01/04 | Ligue 1 | AS Monaco | 1-3 (HT 1-1 FT 1-3) | Lyon |
| 2025/12/22 | Coupe de France | Lyon | 3-0 (HT 0-0 FT 3-0) | Saint Cyr Collonges |
| 2025/12/14 | Ligue 1 | Lyon | 1-0 (HT 0-0 FT 1-0) | Havre Athletic Club |
Lyon will be favorites to add to Nantes’ woes. Les Gones have been in great shape in recent months, dominating both at home and in Europe. A 2-0 win over Laval just booked them a quarter-final berth in the French Cup.
That marked their 11th straight win across all competitions, and they’ve only failed to win twice in their last 15 matches. In the reverse fixture back in November, Lyon blanked Nantes 3-0 for their fifth straight unbeaten outing in this match.
With only Lorient and Real Betis beating Lyon in the last 10 away matches, we expect the visitors to go for three points here.
Final Prediction:
Asian Handicap: Lyon -0.5/1
European Handicap: Lyon Wins
Predicted Scores: 0-1, 0-2. 1-2
Predicted Total Goals: 1, 2, 3
