APWin experts have analysed the main betting markets and selected high-value bets.
Our prediction is: Lyon to win the 1st half
Our top betting tip for the Lyon vs Celta de Vigo match is Lyon to win the first half. While the half-time market is not one of the more well-known betting markets, it often offers better value odds than wins over 90 minutes.
We see this value in Lyon, which has been in impressive form at home and regularly gets out to quick starts. They should have a favourable matchup against Celta de Vigo, who have had their share of struggles of late.
Our prediction is: Under 2.5 goals in the match
It's hard to see too many goals in this match between Lyon and Celta de Vigo given their lack of goalscoring ability.
That is why we project the total to go under 2.5 goals. So if 2 or fewer goals are scored, the bet wins.
