Every settled tip is public on the track record.
Crystal Palace +0.5 wins if Palace win or draw. The market prices that at about 56%, and the independent model puts Palace plus the draw at about 56.7%, so the model and the market agree. The one checkable difference is Lyon's availability. Openda, their first-choice striker, is out with a fibula break. Pavel Sulc is likely to play as a false nine. Niakhate, a first-choice centre-back, and Ouedraogo are also out, which thins Lyon at the back. Lyon lost 2-1 at Lens last time out. Palace have lost once in their last six matches and beat Nottingham Forest 3-1 on Sunday. They have injury problems too: Chadi Riad is out, and Dean Henderson, Jean-Philippe Mateta and Takehiro Tomiyasu are doubtful. Axel Disasi is available again after a domestic ban. Losing the main striker costs Lyon a little in attack, and I think the market has not fully priced that. The value is small, about two points, and Lyon remain slight favourites to win.
