The Matchday 33 clash in Ligue 1 between Monaco and Lyon will take place on May 10 at the Louis II Stadium in Fontvieille. Monaco vs. Lyon: prediction and betting odds, statistics.

Monaco

In the last round, Monaco defeated Saint-Etienne 3-1 and reclaimed the 3rd spot in the Ligue 1 standings. This victory narrowed their gap to second-placed Marseille to just one point. Monaco extended their unbeaten run in the league to four matches (2 wins, 2 draws), and their home unbeaten streak in this tournament now stands at seven games, six of which were victories. Overall, in the current Ligue 1 season, Monaco has been outstanding at home, ranking second among the best home teams in the competition, behind only PSG, with 36 points from 16 matches.

  • The club has not lost in 8 of their last 9 Ligue 1 matches (5 wins, 3 draws).
  • Monaco has scored at least twice in 9 of their last 10 home games in this tournament.
  • At least three goals have been scored in 7 of Monaco's last 8 home matches in Ligue 1.

Predicted lineup for Monaco (4-4-2)

Philippe Kohn – Caio Henrique, Christian Mavissa Eliebi, Wilfried Singo, Jordan Teze – Soungoutou Magassa, Denis Zakaria, Maghnes Akliouche, Takumi Minamino – Myron Boadu, Folarin Balogun.

Lyon

The team extended their uncompromising streak in the league to 13 matches (8 wins, 5 losses), suffering a 1-2 defeat to Lens in their previous game. As a result of this setback, Lyon fell out of the European spots in the Ligue 1 standings, dropping from 5th to 7th position. Their gap to Monaco has increased to four points, and dropping points in this game will end their chances of finishing in the top three. Nevertheless, the team managed to score again, extending their scoring streak in the tournament to 14 matches. In terms of scoring, Lyon is even ahead of Monaco this season, having scored 63 times, with only PSG (85) and Marseille (67) scoring more.

  • Both teams scored in Lyon's last 7 Ligue 1 matches.
  • The club has scored at least 2 goals in 11 of their last 13 league matches.
  • On the road, Lyon has failed to win in 6 of their last 9 matches in the top French division (1 draw, 5 losses).

Predicted lineup for Lyon (4-5-1)

Lucas Perry – Nicolas Tagliafico, Clinton Mata, Moussa Niakate, Ainsley Maitland-Niles – Nemanja Matic, Corentin Tolisso, Thiago Almada, Malik Fofana, Rayan Cherki – Georges Mikautadze.

Monaco vs. Lyon: Match Prediction

The upcoming match is crucial for both teams in their quest for European competition spots. The result is particularly important for the visitors, who put their European participation at risk with a loss to an unmotivated Lens. Lyon's chances of reaching the Champions League spots are slim, given their gap not only to Monaco but also to the three other competitors: Nice, Lille, and Strasbourg.

Monaco also faces a challenging schedule towards the end of the season, with an away game against Lens, against whom they traditionally struggle. William Still's side already demonstrated in the last round that they are not giving away points, despite losing motivation, by defeating Lyon. Given the motivation, we can expect activity from both teams, who are known for their attacking style and rank among the league's highest-scoring clubs. Neither Lyon nor Monaco is known for a solid defense. I am confident that neither side will keep a clean sheet in the upcoming match.

Statistics also suggest a high-scoring encounter: at least three goals have been scored in 7 of Monaco's last 8 home Ligue 1 matches and in Lyon's last 7 away matches in the competition. Therefore, my prediction is Both Teams to Score – Yes + Total Over 2.5.

Monaco — Lyon betting tips 10 May 2025

Olympique Lyonnais are still reeling from their dramatic Europa League quarter-final exit — a result that not only bruised morale but also saw them lose ground in the race for Champions League qualification. AS Monaco, meanwhile, remain in contention for second place, but their persistent defensive lapses could prove costly down the stretch.

Following their 3:1 win over relegation-threatened Saint-Étienne, Monaco have opened up a four-point gap over Olympique Lyonnais in the table. Yet even against a modest opponent, they conceded 1.17 xG — a reflection of season-long frailties at the back. They've shipped 37 goals from 35.49 xGA — a clear sign of instability in defence. With Aleksandr Golovin and Kasper Dolberg both sidelined, Monaco’s midfield and attacking balance have also suffered. The Danish forward not only added goals but played a key role in pressing and aerial duels.

Since the March international break, Olympique Lyonnais have found another gear. They have scored 13 goals in six Ligue 1 outings — the second-best tally in the division during that span. The last time Olympique Lyonnais failed to score was back in January under Pierre Sage, in a 0:0 away draw against Fenerbahçe. With Champions League hopes still alive, they will be determined to make the most of this head-to-head clash — especially with one or more top-six sides likely to slip before season’s end.

Recent history favours the visitors: Olympique Lyonnais have won three of the last four meetings between the sides, netting seven goals in the process. Given their attacking form and high motivation, backing Olympique Lyonnais to score at least once feels a strong call.
