Betting tips – Ajax vs Lyon – 03.05.2017

Ajax Amsterdam and Olympique Lyon will open the UEFA Europa League semifinal round, today from 17:45, UK Time, the odds being very well balanced.

Ajax‘ recent form is not impressive, coming here after two losses. They seem to be out of title race in Dutch Eredivisie and their main target now is Europa League. They have the third chance to win the trophy, after Manchester United and Olympique Lyon. Ajax have two missing players, with Viergever and Veltman being suspended.

Lyon will be without Depay, since he played for Man United earlier in the season and now he is ineligible. The visitors faced Besiktas in the Quarter Finals, eliminating them after penalty kicks. The French team failed to impress this year in the away games, proof that they have won only three trips out of twelve in all competitions so far.

Ajax vs Lyon probable lineups:
Ajax (4-3-3): Onana – Tete, Sanchez, Ligt, Sinkgraven – Klaassen, Schone, Ziyech – Traore, Dolberg, Younes.
Lyon (4-2-3-1): Lopes – Jallet, Mammana, Diakhaby, Morel – Gonalons, Tousart – Ghezzal, Tolisso, Valbuena – Fekir.

Prediction: Both teams to score @ 1.53
Ajax and Lyon have good attacks and they will be looking for a positive result this evening in Amsterdam. We expect a spectacular meeting, with goals from both protagonists, the odds being good enough in our opinion.
