Lille vs Chelsea
Lille vs Chelsea meet in the second week of Group H UCL. The match is predicted to be intense because they are both aiming for points after losing the opening party. The match was held at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy .
The hosts began their campaign with a landslide defeat, 3-0, at Ajax headquarters, while Chelsea even lost 0-1 to Valencia at home. As a result, these two teams also occupy the lowest position in Group H.
Regarding the match tomorrow, each of them began to knit confidence in which Lille managed to score 5 points in 3 Ligue 1 matches. On the other hand, Chelsea made it to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup by throwing Grimsby 7-1, then winning 2-0 over Brighton & Hove Albion in Week 7 of the EPL.
Tomorrow’s match will be the Blues’ first visit to Pierre-Mauroy. They also hope to be able to lose N’Golo Kante after the midfielder returned absent last weekend. Reece James and Callum Hudson-Odoi also reportedly began to recover, but will be saved first.
Lille is predicted to be a difficult opponent because it managed to win 4 Ligue 1 home games this season, even scored 9 goals, 2 clean sheets, and conceded only 2 times. They also did not experience a crisis of players like Chelsea where only Timothy Weah was still staying in the treatment room.
Each will try to win in order to catch up with Ajax and Valencia. As the host, Lille has the biggest ambition, but facing Chelsea who is starting to be confident will be a difficult test. Chances are, the draw closes tomorrow’s match.
Our Prediction: Under 2.5
Odds: 1.95
