LYN vs JUV Dream11 Prediction, Live Score & Olympique Lyonnais Vs Juventus FC Football Match Dream11 Team: Champions League 2019/20

Lyon faces Juventus in Wednesday’s Champions League tie at Parc OL. An injury-hit Lyon look for a Champions League upset when they face off against Juventus in the first leg on Wednesday.

Lyon

Lyon may have managed to pick up three points at Metz on Friday, but there’s no denying the French giants are struggling at the moment. They have been almost ever-present in the Ligue 1 top four for over 20 years, but at the time of writing find themselves down in seventh position, six points adrift of Lille in fourth.

Of course, they have had their share of success this season. Qualifying from their Champions League group was one of their highlights, but a succession of injuries and poor performances has sucked the joy out of Parc OL. They come into this match having won just two of their last six in all competitions, and are still without star man Memphis Depay.

Depay’s absence leaves them short of quality going forward, never a good position to be in when faced with the prospect of Juventus’ vastly experienced and talented back line.

Juventus

Juventus might not be dominating Serie A as they have done the last few years, but they remain in top spot after their victory over SPAL on Saturday. The Old Lady have now won seven of their last 11 competitive away games, with many of these being played against teams in much better shape than this Lyon outfit.

Even more encouraging was Cristiano Ronaldo finding the net yet again, meaning the attacker has now scored a sensational 23 goals in his last 18 matches for club and country. As we all know, the all-time leading scorer in the Champions League has a tendency to turn on the style when it comes to this competition.

Understandably, Juventus are favourites for this tie. The visiting Italians won each of their last five Champions League group stage games and their four previous meetings with Lyon have produced three wins and a draw.

We’re backing a Juventus win here and with both their previous trips to Lyon ending 1-0 to Juventus, we like the look of that for our LYN vs JUV Dream11 Prediction, especially with Lyon missing such a key attacker in Depay.

LYN VS JUV Dream11 Team: Best players

Lyon: Thiago Mendes

With Champions League group stage hero Memphis Depay out with a knee injury, the onus will lie with Lyon’s other big-name players Moussa Dembele and Thiago Mendes, to come up with the goods on Wednesday.

Depay will be sorely missed but Dembele should be able to pick up where his teammate left off if he gets the service. He could produce the same form he has shown in the French top-flight in the Champions League but will need Thiago Mendes to continue to produce the creative performances that has seen him lead the side in assists this season, and will also be a key player in LYN VS JUV Dream11 Team.

Key stat: No Lyon player has more assists in Ligue 1 than Thiago Mendes (6), which makes him a good pick for LYN VS JUV Dream11 Prediction.

Juventus: Cristiano Ronaldo

Juventus signed Cristiano Ronaldo for one reason, to win the Champions League. He is a man with huge experience and pedigree in this competition and remains the most influential figure in Juve’s ranks.

His record speaks for itself, but his attitude and application on the pitch rubs off on those around him and has helped lift the Old Lady after several flat performances in their domestic championship this season.

He will be vital to the Italian club’s chances of progression and overall ability to win this competition, and also a key player in LYN VS JUV Dream11 Team.

Key stat: No player has scored more goals in the Champions League than Cristiano Ronaldo (128). So he is a good option for LYN VS JUV Dream11 Prediction.
