Angers vs Lille Prediction

Angers Form

Angers only added a single point to their account in their last three games, where they lost 0-2 and 3-0 against Toulouse and Lens respectively. At least they managed a 1-1 draw with Nice. Angers didn't manage a single win in any of their previous six Ligue 1 games at the Stade Raymond Kopa. They have a record of two draws and four defeats, in which they conceded 11 and scored five goals.

Lille Form

Lille look well suited to take on any opponent with seven points to show off from three matches. They started off drawing 3-3 with Lyon, before downing first Toulouse by 0-2, then Lorient in a 3-1 win. Lille claimed two wins against two draws and two defeats in their last six away matches in the Ligue 1. The scoreline from these matches reads seven goals conceded and nine scored.

Going forward, Angers and Lille are both in decent form, while at the same time being generous in defence. We are confident, both teams will find the back of the net this coming Saturday.

Lille won seven of their previous eight encounters with opponents from the bottom six of the Ligue 1. They scored 20 and conceded four goals and collected 22 points. Angers show off a record of two wins, five draws and 22 defeats in the Ligue 1 this season. Lille show off 15 wins, seven draws and seven defeats in the Ligue 1.
