PSG Prediction – Can PSG further extend lead at top?
The Paris hosts predictably sit top of Ligue 1 but they already hold a commanding 8-point lead ahead of 2nd placed Marseille prior to this Friday night clash with Lille at their Parc des Princes ground as the French top flight action resumes after the international break.
PSG bounced back from their recent and surprising 2-1 loss away at Dijon last time out in Ligue 1 when they registered a 2-1 win away at Brest to go into the break on a more positive note, and having won 5 of their last 6 matches overall, PSG will take some stopping again I fancy.
The hosts have suffered just 1 defeat out of their 6 home matches to date which was a 2-0 loss to Reims, but the French champions responded immediately by recording back-to-back 4-0 wins against Angers and 2nd placed Marseille respectively as they once again asserted their authority on home turf.
PSG have suffered just 1 defeat out of their last 25 matches on home turf, and having won 22 of these (along with 18 of these 22 also resulting in over 2.5 goals), the hosts look set to continue their dominance on Friday night.
Lille Prediction – Can Lille contain their hosts?
5th placed Lille were held to a disappointing 0-0 draw at home with Metz just before the international break, and that result meant that the visitors had gained just 1 win out of their last 6 matches overall in the French top flight.
Their one success during this recent period was a 3-0 home win over 7th placed Bordeaux, but defeats to Toulouse and Marseille both away from home may well signal further trouble for Lille on Friday night when they make their way to Paris to face a dominant PSG outfit.
Lille largely have their form on home turf at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy to thank for their current league position as all of their 5 league wins to date have been achieved in their own backyard, while results away from home have been, quite frankly, poor by comparison.
An away record of 0-2-4 4/9 includes defeats at Amiens, Reims, Toulouse and Marseille and they’ve also failed to keep a single clean sheet on their travels to date in Ligue 1 this season too, so this doesn’t bode well either for Lille’s trip on Friday.
Key-Facts – PSG vs Lille
- PSG have suffered just 1 defeat out of their last 25 matches at home
- 18 of the 22 wins of the last 25 matches also resulted in over 2.5 goals
- Lille are without a win away from home so far this season in Ligue 1
Betting Tips Verdict
PSG are expected to win this one quite comfortably and the goals could also flow too.
