Predictions & Tips
Form Guide
Lille
WWDWW
Lille over the last month have now managed to turn around a rather difficult run of form to scale up the division’s log and into fifth place. The hosts’ come into this fixture on the back of a rather emphatic five game undefeated streak. A run that's seen two victories apiece either side of the one-all draw with Lorient. Lille have now acquired 13 of a possible 15 points across their last five league games and will be insistent on extending that return.
Lens
LDWLW
RC Lens have been the revelation side of the 2025/2025 French Ligue Un with the side continuing to square it up to division heavyweights Paris Saint-Germain. Lens’ 19 victories and two stalemates now puts the side within touching distance of the Parisiens with only one point separating the sides. The visitors’ have managed to quickly return to winning ways after the disappointing 2-1 loss to Lorient just before the international break. Their commanding response saw the Nord side put five goals past a struggling Angers outfit.
Prediction
Both teams will go all out for a winning result in hopes of adding important points to their respective campaigns. As such, two goal returns on the day would not be far-fetched.
