Why we picked this for Manchester City vs Lyon

For this Champions League fixture we go with Over 2.5 goals for Manchester City vs Lyon, at 60% confidence. In their last 5 matches, Manchester City's games produced 3.4 goals on average, 3 of them over 2.5. Lyon's games averaged 2.0, with 1 of 5 over the line. Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 4 of the 10 recent games went over 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Over 2.5.

The two sides haven't met recently, so head-to-head history plays no part in this call. At 60%, the recent numbers lean this way, but not strongly. Final score: 1-2. The pick won.
