St Etienne - Lille Prediction, Picks and Tips
Both are serious candidates to play European tournaments next season. St. Etienne is currently aiming to stay in the Europa League although thinking about a Champions League spot does not seem far-fetched (6 points from third place). Unfortunately for their interests comes from losing a key game against a direct rival (2-0 with Marseille).
The 'green' are accompanied by irregularity in recent days of Ligue 1 as they have five alternating defeats with victories, in addition to a limited scoring production. Now they receive the surprising Lille, second in the table and that during this 2019 has not lost by league. The 'dogs' are characterized by their solid defensive scheme and we see that in the last 5 days they just scored a goal. In fact, he has the least battled defense only after the PSG leader. It also has effective attack players like their scorer Pepé or Loic Remy, who do not need many situations generated to be dangerous.
