Nantes did well against Lille last season and are looking to replicate the same when they face off this Sunday. Ahead of their Ligue 1 match, Nantes are 15th and Lille seventh. Below is our prediction.
From their league positions, it is clear that these two are having contrasting seasons. Nantes seem to be heading to another season of battling relegation.
Their only win after seven league matches was against a team in the drop zone – Auxerre. Four matchdays later, they have failed to add on to that win.
Three straight draws, however, have seen them settle a place above the bottom three. There’s always a danger of falling into the red zone.
Lille are also coming from a winless run of their own, but their performance before the break suggests they are ready to bounce back. Les Dogues dug in to post a 1-1 draw with league leaders PSG in their last outing.
That ended a run of straight defeats in the league, having lost the earlier two matches against Lyon and Lens. With only two losses in their first nine matches of the season, Lille head into this game full of confidence.
One of the losses came on the road, though, and Lille will also be seeking a second straight clean sheet on the road.

Our Nantes vs Lille Prediction
Nantes claimed the spoils the last time these two sides faced off and will be gunning for the same here. However, coming off a four-match winless run already puts them at a disadvantage. The hosts have only won once in the last 10 meetings with Lille, who carry a much better run coming here.
Lille claimed a hard-fought point against PSG last time out, and they will bank on that to motivate them towards a return to winning ways. Our prediction for Nantes v Lille is that Lille wins the match.
