Sitting at 3rd in Group G, Lyon have seven points, level with Zenit and three ahead of Benfica. Held 1-1 at home by Zenit, they’ve stunned Leipzig and left Germany following 0-2 win. After that, they lost their next two away matches while beating Benfica at home in between.
The Frenchmen will go through if they beat Leipzig, in which case they would secure first place, or if they draw and Zenit lose in Portugal. A defeat means elimination from the competition and from Europe altogether if Zenit lose against Benfica.
The Red Bulls will secure first place with a draw or win in France. They’re top of the group G, 10 points, with progress to the knockout rounds for the first time assured in mad 2-2 draw v Benfica. Leipzig lost 2-0 at home to Lyon in what was the teams’ first meeting but that is their sole defeat in the group.
One thing we can expect from this game are goals. Leipzig, while kind of subdued in Champions League, have been on a rampage in Bundesliga and with Last 16 secured, their shackles might come off.
Leipzig is favorite tonight from what I saw so far in this group.
