Insights:
  • Lille have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Bordeaux have the most conceded goals (70) in Ligue 1

These teams have little in common geographically as Bordeaux have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Lille form and stats

6 victories, 6 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Lille have to build on here at Stade Pierre-Mauroy in the Ligue 1.

Nothing to worry about in defence for Lille, as their goalkeeper Leonardo Cesar Jardim has completely shut out the opponents for 563 minutes in the Ligue 1.

A good away victory last time out for Lille, who won 1-0 against Nantes (placed 9th). Midfielder Onana was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.95 (out of ten) in that game. Onana scored one goal, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.

Erik lost again

Bordeaux form and stats

There's been little loot from Bordeaux's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 14 away games in the Ligue 1. Bordeaux only have 2 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 5 draws. Three has not been a lucky number for Bordeaux as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Clermont match.

Bordeaux have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 347 minutes ago. Guilavogui was the goal scorer.

Bordeaux failed to get anything from their last game, a home match vs Montpellier (placed 11th) that ended with defeat 0-2. Adli got a match rating of 8.61 in that game, top player of the team. Adli hit four key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.

Preceding that, the 0-2 home loss versus Montpellier.

Bordeaux are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 18 away goals from 14 games (in the league). People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that Bordeaux concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own. Bordeaux has visited these top teams five times, and 5 of 5 has ended with 2 goals or more!
