Match forecast
The visitors have not lost in nine of their last 10 Europa League games, hence making it even tougher for Lyon to get a win here. Lyon, on the other hand, have won five of their last 10 meetings with Turkish clubs.
Besiktas just need to avoid a defeat here and hopefully finish the job in the return leg in Istanbul, Turkey. The visitors have never won any away game to French oppositions in their last three outings, but are unbeaten at home.
They now face a Ligue 1 side that suffered a shock 4-1 defeat to Lorient over the weekend as their key players Alexandre Lacazette and Mathieu Valbuena came on as substitutes but could do very little to rescue the situation.
The hosts will be without Maxime Gonalons, Jeremy Morel and Memphis Depay. The visitors, on the other hand, will miss Vincent Aboubakar due to suspension, while Ricardo Quaresma is also a doubt.
The defeat to Lorient last weekend could be attributed to the absence of the likes of Lacazette. And as they return to face the Turkish outfit, Lyon could win this home fixture or risk losing in Turkey in the return leg.
