Lyon, meanwhile, played out a goalless draw away to Brest in Ligue 1, having played for over 82 minutes with a numerical disadvantage.

Real Betis vs Lyon Prediction
Real Betis have lost just one of their last nine European games at home. They are the slight pre-game favorites, and a win could see them climb into the top eight. Manuel Pellegrini's side were runners-up in the Conference League last season and are among the favorites to make a deep run in this term's Europa League.
Lyon, for their part, proved their mettle over the weekend as they held Brest to leave with a point despite being reduced to 10 men in the eighth minute.
We expect the two sides to share the spoils in a low-scoring stalemate.
