Lille thriving in Europe

Lille had to come through two rounds of qualifiers in this season’s Champions League, but they’ve more than made their mark on the League Phase. The Ligue 1 outfit have beaten both Real Madrid and Atletico in their last two games, putting them in a great position to qualify for the next round.

Juventus won two of their first three games in Europe, but their impressive domestic performances haven’t translated to this stage. A defeat to Stuttgart last time out was a setback, while Juve have conceded 5.8 Expected Goals across their last two games in Europe, running up a total of just 1.4 in return.

Lille have been up against it in their clashes with top opposition but they’ve shown plenty of restraint and an ability to cause problems without seeing a lot of the ball.

The hosts are unbeaten in seven across all competitions, while they’ve won five of those. They were denied a third consecutive victory on Friday after Lyon scored a late equaliser, but the hosts will be well-rested. They can record another upset with Juve losing seven of their previous 10 games in this competition.
