Lyon vs Amiens Soccer Betting Tips
Undefeated in 2020, OL finally saw their beautiful winning streak end on Sunday on the lawn of Nice (2-1). Before that, the Gones had won their 7 games played since the winter break, the last against Lille (2-2, 4-3 TAB) in the Coupe de la Ligue, Toulouse (3-0) in the league and Nice in the Coupe de France (1-2). Despite this excellent series, Rudi Garcia’s men are only 6th in the ranking, 8 points from the podium and they are still paying for a totally missed start to the season.
For Amiens, the situation is worrying. In fact, the club is only 18th in the ranking and virtually a roadblocker with a meager record of 19 points won during the first 22 days. Unable to win a single match since November in Ligue 1, the Picards bowed against Montpellier (1-2) before sharing the points with Reims (1-1) at home. Beaten in Brest (2-1), they were unable to beat Toulouse on Saturday evening which had just lost its last 13 games.

Finally, Marçal will be suspended following his red card received against Nice on Sunday.
