Lyon is clearly the favourite to win against AC Ajaccio. They are facing one of the weakest teams in the league and it would be very surprising if they fail to claim all three points. This game should be a very comfortable win for Lyon and the best option would be backing them to win.
AC Ajaccio hosts Lyon at the Stade Francois Coty, Ajaccio on Sunday in the twentieth round of games in the French Ligue One.
Lyon breezed past Chambery in the previous round of the Coupé de France last week in a three nil victory. That was their second win in four games after the 2-1 win at home to Metz. Lyon is currently ninth in the league and need to pick up points if they are to secure European football ahead of next season.
Laurent Blanc's team has won seven times in the league and most of those victories came against teams in the bottom half of the table. They have been very efficient against teams like AC Ajaccio and it is very likely that they would grab all three points in this game.
Since Blanc's appointment Lyon has improved in attack and has scored 28 goals in the league this season, averaging over a goal per game. They are in good form to outscore AC Ajaccio who has been less productive in front of goal.
AC Ajaccio is currently eighteenth in the French Ligue One with only fifteen points from nineteen games this season. They are in the relegation zone and with their current form things don't look promising for the hosts. AC Ajaccio has lost their last three games in all competitions and that poor run of form saw them dumped out of the Coupé de France.
The home team has been conceding a huge amount of goals recently with a total of ten goals in their last three games in all competitions. AC Ajaccio has also struggled in front of goal with only one goal scored in their last three matches. They are also averaging less than a goal per game in the league with 16 goals in 19 league games.
Lyon has won three straight games against AC Ajaccio and they are gunning for a fourth. The away team is one of the poorest teams in France based on current form and Lyon should easily get the win in this game.
