For Manchester united to beat Lyon in this quarter finals is going to be a very big deal for them, because Manchester united is not in condition they are find it difficult in times of securing victory. Although sometimes they normally surprises their fans, but one thing I believe is that if Manchester united finally wins Lyon in this game, I think they most likely qualify to the final.
I agree with you. If Manchester United were in good form, we could definitely consider Manchester United as the favorite against Lyon. But the performance of Manchester United players is inconsistent. Even then, Manchester United is giving full effort in the Europa League. For this reason, many are considering Manchester United as the favorite. However, it is impossible to make a sure prediction about Manchester United's performance.
I cannot call Lyon a weak team. We saw stable performance from Lyon players in the first round matches as well. Lyon is playing quite well in Ligue 1 matches as well. Lyon has the ability to defeat Manchester United. That is why I cannot consider United as the favorite.
