Lyon vs Celta Vigo prediction
The first-leg saw Lyon manage to pinch themselves a draw against Celta at Balaidos. Celta went ahead via Javi Rueda before Borja Iglesias was sent off mid-way through the first-half before Endrick scored a late equaliser for the French giants.
Lyon are now winless in their last five matches across all competitions, ending what was a record-breaking 13-match winning streak under the management of Paulo Fonseca. Celta have been brilliant throughout the last couple of years and they remain in touching distance of UEFA Champions League qualification in La Liga after their 1-1 draw with Real Betis at La Cartuja the other day.
These are two of the stronger sides in this competition but both are out of form and there is a feeling that extra-time may beckon at Parc OL.
