Lyon's 2025/2026 Ligue 1 Campaign
Lyon wrapped up the 2025/2026 Ligue 1 season in a respectable 4th place, racking up 60 points from 34 games. Their record of 18 wins, 6 draws, and 10 losses paints a picture of a team that could be a bit more consistent — especially considering the 10 defeats. They found the back of the net 53 times while conceding 40, leaving them with a positive goal difference of 13.
At home, Lyon were sturdier, winning 12 games and keeping 8 clean sheets, whereas away games proved trickier with 6 wins and 7 clean sheets. Scoring 30 goals on home turf and 23 away, the squad showed decent attacking balance but occasionally let in a few too many at the back.
Looking ahead, Lyon will be keen to build on this solid foundation. While they didn't quite smash the glass ceiling this time, there's enough in the tank to suggest that a push for an even stronger challenge could be on the horizon.

Lyon's 2025/2026 Ligue 1 Season Form
Lyon's campaign in the 2025/2026 Ligue 1 has been a mixed bag, with a total of 18 wins, 6 draws, and 10 losses across 34 matches. Their biggest win streak isn't recorded, suggesting that their results have been somewhat inconsistent rather than marked by any significant run of consecutive victories.
They have been more prone to dropping points through losses than draws, with 10 defeats outweighing 6 stalemates. Home form has been notably stronger, boasting 12 wins at their ground compared to 6 on the road, and their defensive solidity is highlighted by a total of 15 clean sheets split almost evenly between home and away fixtures.
Offensively, they have netted 53 times, with a positive goal difference of +13 reflecting a side capable of scoring but also conceding at times. Overall, Lyon's season exhibits flashes of quality but lacks the consistency often required for a title challenge.

Lyon's Home and Away Fortunes in Ligue 1 2025/2026
Lyon's performances at home versus away reveal a tale of two stadia. At their own ground, they've been quite the fortress, netting 30 goals and conceding a modest 18, complemented by eight clean sheets. This certainly suggests a well-organised defence and a decent attacking edge when backed by their home crowd.
On the road, however, things have been a tad more challenging. With 23 goals scored but 22 conceded, and only seven clean sheets away, Lyon seem a bit more porous and less clinical. Their away record includes nearly as many losses as at home, indicating a struggle to replicate their home form on unfamiliar turf.
In a nutshell, Lyon rely significantly on their home advantage to maintain their top-four standing in Ligue 1 this season.
Fipster's Record on Lyon
Fipster's record on Lyon in the 2025/2026 campaign is still very much in its infancy, having graded only one fixture so far. That solitary prediction didn’t quite hit the mark, resulting in a miss. So, while the model is yet to find its rhythm with Lyon, patience is advised as it builds up a track record.
Given Lyon’s solid fourth-place standing in Ligue 1, with 18 wins and 6 draws from 34 matches, there’s plenty of material for Fipster to analyse and hopefully improve its accuracy moving forward.
