Manager-less Everton take a trip to France on Thursday, and I doubt many Toffees fans are relishing the prospect despite Lyon being a lovely place.
Since dumping Coach Ronald Koeman, Everton have lost two more matches. Sports betting fans are beginning to look a little more closely at the odds of relegation, recently unthinkable on Merseyside. So a win in the Europa Cup would be a huge tonic for Everton and caretaker manager David Unsworth, who has designs on the job.
Things don’t look good with betting odds of 4.80 to win or even 3.95 to get a draw. Lyon sit third in Ligue 1 and have four consecutive wins to (almost) match Everton’s four consecutive defeats!
In the other Group E match, leaders Atalanta visit Apollon Limassol.
There’s a cracking game in Group D where leaders Milan head to Athens to face second-placed AEK. Vincenzo Montella’s men have stuttered a little in the league, but Andre Silva, with four Europa goals, has been a constant threat. At 2.15 to win, Milan are favourites, with the hosts at 2.95 and 3.15 the draw.
Lazio can take a stranglehold on Group K with a win, at odds of 1.56, over second-placed Nice. The draw is at 3.80, and an away win at 4.60 would draw Nice level with Lazio on nine points. But Lazio won seven on the bounce while Nice lost five!
Elsewhere, Arsenal can make it four wins from four at home to Crvena Zvezda in Group H; there’s a top-two clash in Group A where Slavia Prague hosts Villarreal, both on five points.
