Lille and Lorient will be back in action as the French Ligue 1 proceeds to the 25th round of matches. The two face off on Sunday, Lille holding onto sixth spot and Lorient being 10th. Let’s have a look at the prediction for the match.
Lille weren’t in action in the French Cup, so Les Dogues have rested well ahead of this game. They will be in line for a fourth straight victory across all competitions and a third in Ligue 1 action.
Lille have not only steadied their ship but also tightened up at the back, going without conceding in the last three matches. They’re not only seeking a double against Lorient but have won the last two meetings, scoring 10 goals.
Lorient may have failed to win in regular time in their last three matches, but six wins in 10 mean they might shock Lille. Les Merlus will be disadvantaged by the fact they are coming off a midweek match and had less time to recover.
They lost to Nice on post-match penalties, meaning they’ve drawn each of their last three matches at 90 minutes. While in general they’ve had a good run, this fixture hasn’t always been kind to them.
They’ve lost four times in the last six matches, and away to Lille, they fell on each of the last four visits.
