REF’s picks

Olympique Lyon return to their home ground with strong momentum in the upper reaches of the table, making them well-equipped to cover the handicap against a struggling OGC Nice side. Paulo Fonseca's men boast plenty of attacking quality through Pavel Šulc and Afonso Moreira, which should enable them to break down the visitors' defensive block. However, Lyon's recent slip-up against Lens highlights a degree of defensive vulnerability that Nice could exploit on the counter-attack.

1Lyon hold a strong home record and sit comfortably higher in the Ligue 1 table than their opponents.
2The hosts possess superior creative options in midfield and attack to establish a multi-goal lead.
3Lyon's occasional defensive lapses away from their best form give Nice a realistic route to stay competitive.
