Roma\u2019s trip to France didn\u2019t go as planned last week as they suffered a 4-2 defeat away at Lyon. Mouctar Diakhaby put Lyon ahead after just eight minutes, before Mohamed Salah equalised 12 minutes later. Roma then went ahead, thanks to a goal from former Spurs player Federico Fazio and went into half time with a 2-1 lead.<\/p>\n

Shortly after the interval, Lyon\u2019s Corentin Tolisso equalised for the hosts and from then on in, it was all Lyon. Nabil Fekir put the hosts back in front on the 74th<\/sup> minute, before much-coveted striker Alexandre Lacazette fired home a fourth goal in injury time.<\/p>\n

It was Roma\u2019s third consecutive defeat in all competitions, however they regained some form with a 3-0 victory over Palermo on Sunday, with goals coming from Stephen El Shaarawy, Edin Dzeko and Bruno Peres.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Lyon carried on showing off their good form, with a 4-0 victory over Toulouse. Goals came from Christophe Jallet, Maxwel Cornet and a brace from Memphis Depay, including one from the halfway line.<\/p>\n

Roma vs. Lyon Predictions<\/h2>\n

While Lyon have been in good form, their four recent victories have all come at home and they\u2019ve struggled on their travels, winning just one of their last six matches and four ending in defeat. This away form could potentially be problematic, as Roma have been almost unbeatable at home this season. It\u2019s also important to remember that Roma scored twice in the away leg, therefore they have two away goals, which could be important come the final scoreline.<\/p>\n

Roma vs. Lyon Betting Tips<\/h2>\n

Roma are solid favourites at home, priced at 5\/7<\/a>, while Lyon are outsiders at 33\/10<\/a>. The draw is priced at 3\/1<\/a>. Roma\u2019s sensational strike force is spear headed by former Manchester City player Edin Dzeko and he leads the goalscoring market at odds of 59\/20<\/a> to score first, while veteran Francesco Totti is at evens to score at anytime against Lyon. Alexandre Lacazette is Lyon\u2019s highest priced player in the market at odds of 9\/2<\/a> to score first.<\/p>\n
