Lyon looking to finish the job in France
Olympique Lyonnais are a touch favourites to finish the deal against Fenerbahce SK in UEFA Champions League Qualification 2026 on Wednesday, but the Turkish side will certainly make them work for it at Groupama Stadium.
The head-to-head is all square after two draws in a row, including the 1-1 draw at Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium in UEFA Champions League Qualification 2026 just 24 hours ago. Paulo Fonseca's side are the better side on paper and their home record in this competition is impressive with four wins from five fixtures.
But while Lyon have the pedigree to progress, Les Gones have also shipped 10 goals in their five home matches to date and there are certainly some defensive issues to address.
Fenerbahce arrive in mixed form after a disappointing 2-1 defeat at Genclerbirligi SK and the aforementioned 1-1 draw with Lyon in the first leg.
Fener can contribute to an entertaining affair
But their away record looks pretty solid with two wins, a draw and one defeat from their last four road trips and only four goals conceded.
Ismail Kartal's team are set up to counter-attack at high speed and they have the physical attributes to play a fast-paced, direct game through the wide areas.
They carry a threat going forward with Anderson Talisca the danger man - the Brazilian is Fenerbahce's main danger man in UEFA Champions League Qualification 2026 with four goals in five appearances.
He has also scored four of Sarı Kanaryalar's last six goals across the last five matches so he is a good shout in the anytime scorer market.
Lyon have plenty of scoring potential themselves with Ainsley Maitland-Niles their leading scorer in UEFA Champions League Qualification 2026 with one in three.
Fonseca has Lyon playing a structured 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 system with sharp counter-pressing and quick vertical bursts, so they can make things happen when they have the ball.
There's not much to choose between these teams and it looks like a close Champions League qualifier, but Lyon's home edge and the fact they are slight odds-on favourites means they are taken to edge it here. The value can be found in goals, however, with Over 2.5 at 89/100 and Both Teams to Score - Yes at 69/100 the top bets.
