by Geoffrey Ejiga in Ligue 1 Predictions
Round 3 of the French Ligue 1 brings us a highly anticipated clash between Lorient and Lille. The home side, known as Les Pirates, will be eager to get their season back on track, while the visitors, Les Dogues, will aim to build on a strong attacking display in their previous outing.
This fixture has historically been a source of thrilling, high-scoring contests, and all signs point to that trend continuing. With both teams possessing a knack for finding the net, we're set for an exciting game. See the stats supporting our Lorient vs Lille match prediction below.
The history between these two clubs provides a powerful argument for a high-scoring game. Their last eight head-to-head encounters have all featured three or more goals. This pattern is particularly strong at Lorient’s home ground, where the last four H2H matchups have gone over the 2.5 goal mark.
Lorient's recent form also points to this, as over 2.5 goals have been scored in eight of their last nine home games, and nine of their last ten competitive matches. They will be hungry to score after a frustrating loss in their last game, where they created numerous opportunities but failed to convert. On the other side, Lille comes in with confidence after putting three goals past Brest in their most recent league game, and a remarkable five of their last six games have also featured over 2.5 goals.
