Model notes

Claude Opus 5

Two evenly matched sides who both won on matchday one, with Lyon's strong Groupama Stadium record in Europe balanced by Palace's quality in midfield and attack (Kamada, Wharton, Strand Larsen) and Lyon's recent defensive lapses, including the loss at Lens. A tight, score-draw-leaning contest with only a slight home edge.

DeepSeek V4 Pro

Lyon's home width and stronger recent chance creation give them a narrow edge, but missing Openda and a reshuffled defence, plus Crystal Palace's attacking momentum, make a score draw a live alternative.

Gemini 3.7 Flash

Lyon boast strong European pedigree and home advantage at Groupama Stadium, but defensive lapses persist on both sides. Crystal Palace's balanced midfield and attacking quality should allow them to match the hosts and claim a hard-fought point.

Muse Spark 1.2

Lyon have only one defeat in six but just lost 2-1 at Lens and have been vulnerable defensively, while Palace arrive off a 3-1 win at Forest with Kamada threatening Lyon's left; with both sides on winning Europa starts and Lyon's mixed record vs English clubs (8W 10D 9L), a tight score draw is the most balanced outcome at Groupama.

MiniMax M3

Lyon have home advantage and only one defeat in six, but arrive low on confidence after a 2-1 loss at Lens, while Crystal Palace's form is choppy (W-L-D-W-L) yet they showed attacking quality in a 3-1 win over Forest. Both sides have been defensively vulnerable, and with Palace boss Sage familiar with Lyon's setup, a tight, goal-shy contest with a shared scoreline looks the single most likely outcome.

Mistral Large 3

Lyon's recent defensive vulnerabilities and Crystal Palace's attacking promise, combined with both teams' recent form suggesting a closely contested match, make a draw the most balanced outcome. However, Lyon's home advantage and slightly stronger recent form edge them ahead marginally.

Kimi K3

A finely balanced tie: Lyon are strong at home with just one defeat in six despite the Lens setback, but Palace arrive with attacking momentum from a 3-1 win over Forest and both sides have looked defensively vulnerable, pointing toward an open, closely-contested match with goals at both ends and the draw a live outcome.

Nemotron 3 Ultra

Lyon's strong home record against English sides and only one loss in six matches give them a slight edge, but Crystal Palace's impressive 3-1 win at Forest and dangerous attack (Kamada in form) make them very live. Both teams have shown defensive frailties recently, and multiple sources highlight a closely-contested, score-draw scenario as the most probable outcome.

GPT-5.6 Sol

Lyon’s home advantage and solid broader form give them a narrow edge, but Palace arrive with attacking momentum and enough quality to trouble a vulnerable defence. A closely matched, open contest makes a score draw the likeliest exact result.

Qwen3.7 Plus

Lyon hold home advantage and are generally solid at Groupama, but both sides have shown defensive vulnerabilities and Crystal Palace's attacking threats (Kamada, Pino, Strand Larsen) make them dangerous on the road. Palace's tendency for BTTS (67%) and high-scoring games, combined with Lyon's recent 2-1 loss to Lens suggesting some fragility, points to a tightly contested match where a draw is highly plausible.

Grok 4.5

Both sides enter with League Phase wins but recent defensive vulnerability and mixed domestic form; Lyon's home edge is offset by Palace's attacking threat and a likely tight, low-scoring contest that frequently ends level.

MiMo v2.5-Pro

Both teams won their Europa League openers but arrive with defensive vulnerabilities—Lyon lost at Lens and Palace's form is choppy (W-L-D-W-L)—and Crystal Palace's manager Sage knows Lyon well from his time there, tilting this toward a tight, closely contested affair that could easily finish level.

GLM-5.2

Both sides won their opening League Phase matches but have shown defensive vulnerabilities, with Lyon coming off a 2-1 loss at Lens and Palace's form being mixed (W-L-D-W-L). Palace manager Sage's familiarity with Lyon and the Eagles' attacking promise suggest they can frustrate the hosts, making a closely-contested score draw the most likely outcome.
