Occupying the singular Europa League spot, Lille will be looking to creep into the Champions League places. While in their tracts, they cannot afford to drop any points as tough customers Montpellier Herault remain very hot on their tails.

All thanks to their impressive results so far, there is a certain good-feel surrounding the club that they can go ahead to secure a spot within the highly-coveted top-three mix. For that, they will need to continue to put nothing but their best foot forward for the remainder of the season.

With a trip to Stade Raymond Kopa to take on troubled Angers, the visiting contingent will be looking to clinch maximum points as their continental qualification dreams linger on.

Angers vs Lille Team News

Last time out in the French Ligue 1, Angers were dealt a major blow against high-flying Reims, as the latter dragged the home side to the cleaners. Reims dominating the game from start to finish, Les Scoistes never really looked like salvaging anything meaningful from the match.

David Guton’s men firing four goals past Angers in that fixture, lots of eyebrows were raised within the home supporter’s section, questioning Stephane Moulin’s competence in managing their club. Indeed, they have been on and off so far, and need to get some form of consistency to their play.

No doubt about that, Les Scoistes are not currently enjoying the best run of form in the league, even losing to a struggling Monaco side few weeks back in a frantic 1-0 encounter.

Following their recent rough patch, Angers have dropped down to 13^th on the log having failed to taste success in their last four games on the trot. In fact, the last time this side celebrated victory was just before Christmas last year against Nantes.

Can things get any worse for Guiton’s men this season? A reason for Le SCO to remain optimistic is that they are just a single win from getting in amongst the top-8 clubs in the league. At this point, anything seems possible for this Angers club.

Though they have won 50% of their games this season, a major source of concern is their recent run of form having failed to register a league victory since late November.

Lille, on the other hand, are currently holding a healthy 3-point lead over 5^th-placed Montpellier Herault and are not afar off from securing a berth at the 2020/2021 Champions League season. Such has been their outstanding performances this term.

Last time out, they secured a priceless 1-0 win over Rennes, edging ever closer to leapfrogging Julien Stephan’s side into third place.

The visiting contingent head into this game having won back-to-back league games but enduring a torrid away form with 7 losses from their previous 11 games. However, they won their last away game against Strasbourg, posting a 2-1 scorecard, a reason for Les Dogues to remain optimistic.

Injured or Suspended Players

Angers vs Lille Predictions

Angers have maintained a good record over Lille over the years having proven too hot to handle for Christophe Galtier’s men in recent years. However, the visitors have really picked up recently and with the added motivation of finishing in the top-three, Les Dogues can be considered favorites here. Backing Lille for the win here could prove disastrous given their poor record on this ground. However, we will be going for the visitor’s win here given they have been on an imperious run of form in recent weeks.
