Command Analysis

Lille

Current form
Lille have been pleasantly surprising with their results in the last month. Since September 21, Bruno Genesio protégés have played seven matches and have not suffered a single defeat (five wins and two draws). It should be noted that the games were even with such strong teams as Real, Atletico and Lens. This is a phenomenal achievement, because the "dogs" have shown that they are capable of withstanding the pressure of even the most difficult opponents and skillfully catching opponents on counterattacks.
What, of course, does not please the fans is the continuation of the busy schedule. Before the break for international matches, away matches with Lyon, Juventus and Nice are coming. The opponents are not easy, but the hosts have already proven more than once that they do not give in to any team and give 100% in every match.
It also a shame that there are many injured players, but Lille still has Jonathan David, who is one of the top three scorers in Ligue 1. Bookmakers have the "dogs" as the favorites in this matchup. It not surprising, considering the club impressive unbeaten streak.
Disqualifications and injuries
Cabella, Ismaily, Umtiti, Bentaleb, Bakker, Haraldsson, Santos and I. Mbappe will not appear on the field due to injuries, Alexandro will miss the match due to suspension.
Interesting trends for betting
Lille are unbeaten in seven games in a row.
In six matches of the unbeaten streak, the "dogs" scored
- The team will score in 21 matches on its home field
Estimated line-up: Chevalier – Meunier, Diakite, Mandi, Gudmundsson – B. Andre, A. Gomes – Zhegrova, E. Gomes, Sahraoui – David.

Lyon

Current form
Lyon have suffered a decline in their game. After five wins in a row in all tournaments, Pierre Saja team failed to win at home, first against Besiktas (0:1) and then against Auxerre (2:2). The defeat to the Turkish club can be attributed to bad luck, but a draw against a club from the bottom of the rankings is an alarm bell.
Lyon have a busy schedule in November. Four of their five games in November will be away games against tough opponents. The defense has not been performing well since the start of the season, making many unforced errors. If the attack relaxes a little and stops scoring so much, Lyon will quickly start to lose ground in the rankings.
Disqualifications and injuries
There are no injured or disqualified players on the team.
Interesting trends for betting
Lyon have won their last three away matches
The visitors have scored in seven of their last eight matches.
- Lyon have conceded goals in two games in a row

2.15Tip and bets
We agree with the bookmakers who put Lille as the favourite. The team shows an increasingly higher level of play and confidence in their abilities with each game. The meetings with Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in the Champions League were especially impressive.
Lyon is in search of itself. With the game that the team showed in the last two matches, it is foolish to count on any points. We are inclined to think that the hosts will control the situation on the football field and achieve victory.
Our prediction is a Lille victory with odds of 2.09
Bet on total
Both teams prefer an attacking style of play. The statistics of face-to-face meetings also indicate that the upcoming match will be productive. In three of the last five matches, at least four goals were scored per game. We believe that similar goal activity will be in the upcoming confrontation.
Our forecast is total over 3.5 goals with odds of 2.43
Bet on corners
Since we are expecting a productive game, it is logical to bet that the two teams will be able to make quite a few corner kicks.
Our prediction is total over 9.5 corners with odds of 1.80
