Lyon hosts Brondby in round 2 of the Europa League group stage. The match will be played on Thursday, September 30th at Parc Olympique Lyonnais (Lyon)
Lyon began their journey in the group stage of the UEL with an away victory over the Scottish Rangers (0-2). The Kids lead the Group A standings with three points. And they are gradually returning to the leading group in the French championship. Lyon scored only one point in three starting rounds, but then the club beat Nantes (1-0), Strasbourg (3-1), and Troyes (3-1) and lost only to PSG (1-2). On September 25, Lyon shared points with Lorient at home (1-1). The Kids were left with ten men already in the 14th minute due to the sending-off of Emerson. The visitors took advantage of Lyon's confusion and scored an early goal, but a goal by Karl Toko Ekambi restored the balance in the score.

Brondby IF shared points with Sparta Prague at home in the 1st round of the Europa League group stage (0-0). Thanks to that draw, the Danes are in 2nd place in Group A (one point). The reigning champions of Denmark are still far from the results they showed in the previous season. The Boys from Vestegnen are in 8th place in the Super League standings after ten rounds (11 points), lagging 13 points behind the leading Midtjylland. After the summer vacation, Frederiksen's men played 14 matches in the championship, the national cup, and European cups and achieved only three victories. Last week turned out to be successful for Brøndby's players: on 23 September, they hammered Allerod in the Danish Cup (8-1), and three days later they scored three points in the home game of the Super League against Aalborg (2-1).
Lyon is the clear favorite of the upcoming match. The final score will depend on whether Bosz's coaching staff will rotate the lineup. Even if the Kids appear in a reserve squad, they should gain three points with a comfortable advantage. At least four goals were recorded in three out of four previous matches on Lyon’s pitch. This bar has also been broken in five of six previous home games of the Kids in the European group rounds.
Prediction for the match: Over 3.0 goals scored
