On Sunday afternoon, Lille and Lorient go head-to-head at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy in a game that could be pivotal in the fight for the European spots in Ligue One.
LOSC are in sixth place in the French top-flight table and just a point adrift of the league’s European spots. Paulo Fonseca’s team is unbeaten in their last four games in Ligue One, having recorded a 2-0 win at Toulouse in their previous league outing.
The game continued a relatively prolific run of form in front of goal for Lille, as LOSC has now scored at least two goals in six of their last seven league matches.
Lille’s recent home form has been good, as they are unbeaten in 11 Ligue One matches on home soil, having recorded seven victories.
They have been highly potent in those recent home matches in the French top flight, scoring at least two goals in four of their last five games in Ligue One.
The visitors haven’t given up on playing European football next season, although they are currently six points adrift of the teams that occupy the league’s top five.
Lorient’s recent form in the French top flight has been slightly inconsistent, as although they have won just won twice in eight league matches, they have also lost just once in their last five outings in Ligue One.
One aspect of their game that Lorient will need to improve is their away form if they are to land a top-five spot, as they have failed to win any of their last five league games on their travels.
Their recent away games in Ligue One have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in their previous three league games on their travels.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts that these two teams will play out an entertaining draw, which would be of little help to the pair’s pursuit of European football for next season.
