Lyon vs Lorient Prediction, Odds & Statistics
Our Poisson-based model projects 1.65 expected goals for Lyon and 0.70 for Lorient, a combined total of 2.35. That distribution gives Lyon the largest share of the 1X2 market at 60%, with the draw at 24%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 42% for over 2.5 goals and 41% for both teams to score, with 1–0 the single most likely scoreline at 16%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 60% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion
The model's leading selection is Lyon win, at 60.2%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.
It puts both teams scoring at 41% and over 2.5 goals at 42%.
A 60% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
