Last season’s finalists Lyon, led by Jonatan Giráldez, have been placed only fifth among potential Champions League winners and now visit modest Servette on Wednesday with a point to prove.
According to Le Progres, Opta’s model has holders Barcelona top at 41.2%, with Bayern on 17.3%, Chelsea at 13.7% and Manchester City all ahead of OL Lyonnes, who sit at 8.2%.
The English statistics firm, widely regarded in recent years, has published its ranking of favourites to lift the trophy.
The Lyon squad, stung by that forecast, could look to send a message to the rest of Europe.
Opponents may be warned not to underestimate the Lyonnes.
