How our call settled

Our pick, Lyon to win at locked odds 1.65, won. It was published with 58% confidence.

Before the start the best price on Lyon to win had drifted from 1.65 to 1.98, so the market moved away from this pick after it was published.

Analysis

Lyon are the favourites for the Ligue 1 fixture with Nice on 18 October 2026, priced at 1.65 against 5.05 for Nice. Margin-free, the implied chance is 57.5% for Lyon, 23.7% for the draw and 18.8% for Nice.

Over all competitions, Lyon have won 8 of 15 meetings since 2020 and Nice 5, with 2 ending without a winner. They last met in Ligue 1 on 15 February 2026. No recent results for either team are available.

We pick Lyon to win with 58% confidence. The market chance of 57.5% was adjusted upward by 1.0 points as the head-to-head record leans to Lyon. Team news and pitch conditions are not known to us, so a late surprise is the main risk.
