Nice head to Decathlon Arena-Stade Pierre-Mauroy as the clear underdogs for a Ligue 1 round five match with Lille this coming Wednesday. Given how the odds are stacked against them, anything besides a defeat will be a surprise. Lille beat Nice by 3-1 in their most recent match, while Nice claimed a 4-0 win in the match prior to that.

Placed sixth in the table Lille have amassed seven points after four matches. On two points, Nice rank 18 with four matches this season. Lille have piled up seven points from the first four matches played. This puts them at number 6 in the Ligue 1 table, with Nice having five points less to show off. This qualifies the latter to a ranking as number 18.

Lille took down Nice in their most recent meeting, and bookmakers deem another win for the home side a likely scenario on Wednesday.

Lille scored 17 while allowing 20 goals against in the past ten matches. They claimed one clean sheets on the way.

Nice scored 12 goals, conceded 14 and managed two clean sheets in their previous ten matches.

Lille vs Nice Prediction

Their last three matches saw Lille drawing 1-1 with Nantes, losing 1-7 against PSG before beating AC Ajaccio by 1-3. Lille claimed a modest two wins in their past six home matches in the Ligue 1. They also drew one and lost three, scored ten goals and conceded 14.

Lille have their target set on sneaking inside the top six of the Ligue 1 this season, and they have the qualities to at least a finish inside the top third.

In their previous three outings, Nice lost 1-0 against Clermont Foot, beat Maccabi Tel Aviv 1-0 and lost 0-3 against Marseille. Nice won twice, while also recording one draw, and three defeats in their last six away matches in the Ligue 1. The scoreline from these matches says eight goals conceded and five scored.

Nice have their target set on sneaking inside the top six of the Ligue 1 this season, and they have the qualities to at least a finish inside the top third.

Both Lille and visitors Nice seem to struggle just a wee bit much right now, with keeping a clean sheet. We go out on a limb here and suggest that, both teams will find the back of the net.
