Goals look likely when Lyon and Monaco meet in Coupe de France tie
Lyon vs AS Monaco - 21/04/2021
2508
Lyon will go in search of a fourth win on the trot in all competitions when they entertain Monaco at their Groupama Stadium.
In this upcoming Coupe de France quarter-final tie as the hosts look to progress through to the semi-final stage.
Recent wins against Red Star in the previous round of the Cup competition (albeit on penalties) along with back-to-back wins in Ligue 1 against Angers 3-0 at home and a 2-1 win away at Nantes should give Lyon plenty of confidence ahead of this cup-tie.
However, recent results overall have produced a mixed bag for Lyon as they’ve been held to draws with Marseille, Reims and Lens in Ligue 1 along with a 4-2 loss to 2nd placed PSG in the domestic league as well.
The constant throughout this campaign though has been the prevalence of goals where Lyon are concerned as nine of their last 13 matches in all competitions have been over 2.5 goals while at home, 13 of Lyon’s last 15 matches overall have also been over 2.5 goals.
Monaco will be seeking a sixth win in all competitions when they make their way to the Groupama Stadium for this quarter-final cup-tie after recording wins in the previous rounds of the Coupe de France over Grenoble Foot, Nice and Metz, the latter on penalties.
In addition, Monaco have captured wins in Ligue 1 against Saint-Etienne 4-0 away, Metz 4-0 at home, Dijon 3-0 at home and a 3-0 win on the road at Bordeaux, meaning four of these five straight wins have seen over 2.5 goals.
Monaco have also registered 10 wins out of their last 11 matches on their travels.
That shows the visitors’ ability to record wins on the road so they need to be respected in this upcoming tie as well.
Six of these last 11 away matches have also resulted in over 2.5 goals while eight of these 11 away matches have also seen Monaco score 2 goals or more, so the visitors are more than capable of contributing to the goal tally here on Wednesday night.
Nine of the last 10 meetings between Lyon and Monaco have produced 3 goals or more and this trend looks set to continue on Wednesday night.
