Lille are going well in Ligue 1 this season and are third in the table. They begin their Champions League campaign with a home match against Betis who are fourth in La Liga but recently conceded five goals in an away game. The stats indicate this could be a low-scoring game and our prediction is less than 2.5 goals.
Last season saw Lille playing in the Europa League. They got through the league phase, but were beaten by the eventual winners Aston Villa in the last 16. Their last time in the Champions League was in the 2024-25 season, reaching the last 16. Two of their three league games this season have seen less than 2.5 goals scored.
Betis were also in the Europa League last season and the Glorious went one round further, making it to the quarter-finals. Their away form wasn't that great though which will inspire Lille. This is their first time in the Champions League since the 2005-06 season. Their last three away European games have all had fewer than three goals scored.

Lille - Betis: Form Analysis
It's been a good start to the season for Lille. They are third in Ligue 1 and are two points behind leaders Monaco. Two of their three league games have been won and at the weekend, they won 1-0 at Toulouse. Before that, the Mastiffs won at Angers and drew with current European champions PSG.
That was a game they really should have won as they went into second half added-on time leading 2-0. Lille finished third in Ligue 1 last season and reached the last 16 of the Europa League. Two out of three in Ligue 1 this season have had less than 2.5 goals scored in them.
Big win at the weekend for Betis.
Betis are fourth in La Liga, three points off the top of the table, Unlike their opponents, they are not unbeaten in their domestic league. Betis had wins over Real Sociedad and Valencia, before a big win at the weekend, beating Real Madrid 1-0 at home. All three of their league wins have been by a 1-0 scoreline.
That wasn't the case in their other league fixture as they went to Levante and lost 5-2.
They finished fifth in La Liga last season. In the Europa League, five out of six on the road saw less than 2.5 goals scored.

Lille & Betis Squad Analysis
Lille come into this Champions League match with a nearly fully-fit squad. The only serious absentee is striker Hamza Igamane. He has a knee injury and has not been registered by Lille for this league phase.
Coach Davide Ancelotti will be pleased with the start that Lille have made to the new season. He won't want to see them concede any more late goals as they did against PSG. A bonus for them is that their most recent game against Toulouse was played last Thursday, so they've had plenty of time to rest since then.
Ethan Mbappe played on the right side of attack in that game and is likely to do again here. Olivier Giroud has been starting matches this week, but there's a chance that Avase Ueda might be in the starting line-up after his recent goal against Toulouse.
Can Antony have another strong season in Europe?
Betis are also in the position where they have a nearly fully-fit squad to choose from. It's been a 20-year wait for them to play in the Champions League. Antony will be a key player for them after he netted six goals in the Europa League last season. Isco is likely to be in the squad, though he will most likely start on the bench.
It could be a big night for Irish striker Troy Parrott. If he does play, he'll be the first Irish player for a non-British club in the Champions League for 12 years.
