Match Preview

Lyon is all set to host Nice in a Ligue 1 encounter at Groupama Stadium on February 15th, 2026.

Currently standing in the 3rd spot with 42 points, Lyon will face off against the 14th-placed Nice, who have accumulated 23 points so far in the season.

Lyon has been formidable at home, winning 14 of their last 16 home matches.

On the other hand, Nice has a 50% win rate in their recent 6 matches.

In their past head-to-head meetings, Lyon has emerged victorious in 50% of their last 6 clashes against Nice.

Prediction: Lyon to win 2-1

Lyon are 3rd with 42 points from 21 matches and are unbeaten in six league games. They have scored 34 goals and conceded 20, giving them the third-best defensive record in the division.

Nice sit 14th with 23 points and have won just one of their last five matches. They have conceded 38 goals this season, one of the highest totals in the league.
