Lille vs Marseille Prediction & Match Preview

Lille vs Marseille: French Ligue 1
Date: Sunday, 16th February 2020, Kick off at 20:00 UK/ 21:00 CET
Venue: Stade Pierre-Mauroy (Lille).

A big showdown will take place on Sunday evening when Lille take on Marseille. Lille are in 4th place and just one point behind Rennes and will have the benefit going into this game to see if Rennes can be caught this weekend or not.

This season has all been about home form for Lille who have who have won 9 games from 12 and lost just once here all season. They have won 4 of their last 5 games with their last home game ending in a 1-0 win over Rennes.

Marseille in 2nd place have the chance to really pull away from Rennes, even though an 8 point lead is good, and the club will be the favourites to snap up the last automatic Champions League place.

The club are in really good form with just one defeat in their last 15 and their last game ended in a win beating Toulouse 1-0, but many fans were expecting more goals against the bottom placed club. Still three points is three points. On the road the club have the 2nd best record in the league winning 50% of their games.

Lille vs Marseille: Head to Head

• Last season Lille won this game 3-0.
• Marseille have won 6 of the last 10 games the teams have played.
• The last 4 meetings have all had over 2.5 goals.

Lille vs Marseille Prediction

We think Lille can get the win here. Marseille have been strong over the last few months but have not been very convincing over their last couple of games. Lille are very strong at home and this is the game they need to win. Rennes need this win too as no one wants Marseille to pull away.

Lille will have to be at their best, these types of games are the difference between playing Champions League football the next season and not, and we are set to see a very exciting game of football on Sunday evening.

Lille vs Marseille: Bet Tips:

• Lille to beat Marseille at 2.25 (5/4)
