Champions League Group H: Inconsistent Lyon and Valencia value to draw

Alexadre Lacazette is Lyon’s prized asset with a prolific campaign last season seeing him break the 30-goal barrier across all competitions. This explains why he is a short anytime chance at evens, but well worth a shout to score first at 4/1.

Acquired attacking partner Beauvue, meanwhile, has developed a habit of netting last since joining from Guingamp after doing so on three occasions already this term, so is a 6/1 shot to do so again.

Valencia share the Kids’ philosophy of promoting young talent nowadays, with that strategy swiftly implemented once billionaire Asian investor Peter Lim had control at the Mestalla.

With just one win in four coming into this Champions League clash, albeit last time out in La Liga against Granada, they have scored just a sole goal since previously seen in Europe when Los Che bravely fought back from 2-0 against Zenit St Petersburg only to concede again and lose 3-2.

Nuno is chopping and changing his selections, clearly yet to find his best XI, but Bats striking prodigy Paco Alcacer cannot be left out of an elite game like this again. His half-time introduction during the Zenit game gave the Russians something else to think about up front.

Paco is becoming an increasingly talismanic figure in like fashion to many Valencia predecessors in the number nine shirt, and a maiden Champions League goal on a potential full debut in the competition is 6/4 to occur anytime.

Another Spanish starlet, Santi Mina, meanwhile, showed bags of potential at Celta Vigo, and is even better in the same market at 9/4.
