Lyon vs Manchester United Information
Lyon
In the past six months, Lyon’s Groupama stadium has witnessed impressive performance in Ligue 1 and Europa League with 9 wins, 2 draws and only 1 loss.

Lyon’s Recent Performance
After the last 5 appearances in all competitions, Lyon only lost 1 and won the remaining 4 matches. In the most recent match, they had an impressive performance against the big Lille and won 2-1. This result shows that defeating the Ligue 1 representative is not a simple matter.
Manchester United
Manchester United are facing challenges in terms of force and form before this important match. In the last two matches, the red army of Manchester did not have any wins, with 1 loss and 1 draw. In addition, their away record is not very good when they only won 1, drew 2 and received 2 losses in the last 5 away trips.

While the “Red Devils” attack only scored 15 goals, the “Rhone Lion” had 29 times shaking the opponent’s net. Notably, most of MU’s recent wins (2 out of 3 in the last 10) have come when their opponents have had to play with 10 men.

Lyon vs Manchester United Football Analysis
Lyon is in quite stable form, while Man Utd is still struggling to shape their playing style. In the domestic league, MU no longer has a goal, so they will focus all their efforts on the Europa League arena. They may not be able to beat Lyon in this match, but they probably won’t lose either.
