Lille - Marseille predictions and free betting tips [05/04/2024]

Good day, dear readers and friends! Let's dive into the 28th round of the French Ligue 1. Today, on the football pitch of "Pierre Mauroy", "Lille" will play host to "Marseille". Let's see what we can expect from the teams and place a bet to help increase our bankroll. 

Possible Line-ups

"Lille": Chevalier; Santos, Diakite, Yoro, Ismaily; Gudmundsson, Andre, Bentaleb; Zhegrova, David, Haraldsson.
"Marseille": Lopez; Garcia, Balerdi, Gigot, Merlin; Veretout, Gueye, Harit; Henrique, Ndiaye, Aubameyang.

Lille

Last season, "Lille" rounded off the top five teams. They are currently in 4th place in the league table, having gathered 46 points. Of their 27 games in the French Championship, the team has clinched 12 victories, drawn 10 times and suffered 5 defeats. The goal difference is 39 for and 24 against. On the previous round of the French Championship, they claimed victory over "Lens" by a narrow margin. 

Marseille

"Marseille" finished last season in 3rd place. Now, they are in 7th position on the league table with 39 points. From the 27 games played, they have achieved 10 victories, scoring 40 goals and conceding 30. In the last round of Ligue 1, they lost to "PSG", conceding 2 unanswered goals. 

Head to Head

In their last encounter, which took place on the 4th of November last year, the teams drew with neither side managing to score a goal.

Prediction

Having viewed the current form of both teams, "Marseille" appears to be on a slump, having conceded 7 goals and scored only 1 in their last 3 outings. "Lille", on the other hand, are undefeated in their last 6 games. I would wager that the hosts will be able to continue their streak. My recommendation would be to bet on their win.

Total Prediction

Given "Lille's" potent attack and "Marseille's" defensive issues, it is reasonable to expect a goal-rich game. My bet would be on total goals over 2.5. Good luck and enjoy the game, dear friends!
