Lille are heading into this match in excellent form. They have won three of their last five games, including two away wins on the bounce, and they haven't lost any of those five. They look sharp and full of confidence. In contrast, Nice are struggling. They have not won any of their last five matches, losing two and drawing three, and they have failed to score in their last couple of games. Their recent trip to the Champions League saw them lose heavily, and they look low on energy.

When these two sides meet, the games are rarely boring. Although their last match ended in a dull 0-0 draw, the four meetings before that all saw at least two goals, with three of them seeing four or more goals scored. Given Lille's current momentum and Nice's poor run of results, this match looks like it should be an open one, and Lille are the team in much better shape to take control. They should win this fairly comfortably.
