We prepared the prediction for the match Lille vs Metz with a coefficient of 2.0

  • Competition: Ligue 1
  • Date: Saturday, 4th January, 2025
  • Kickoff: 18:00 UK / 19:00 CET
  • Venue: Stade Pierre-Mauroy (Villeneuve d'Ascq)

If we exclude the 2021/22 season, Lille were in the top-five teams in France for the previous six years. This year, the Mastiffs are doing well in all competitions, considering they are in 4th place in Ligue 1, only three away from second and third place, which leads to the Champions League (League phase). And in the Champions League, the Mastiffs are on the path of securing the 1/8 Finals. So, we can safely say they can be satisfied with how things are going.

Nantes, on the other hand, have been among the teams that battled against relegation in the previous seasons. Yet, they managed to survive. This season, the popular Canaries are once again among the relegation candidates as they sit in 14th with 14 points in 15 rounds - only one point away from the danger zone! Considering they will have a really challenging schedule in January, we believe they could easily slip into the relegation zone.

Lille vs Nantes pick: Lille to win and cover the -1 AH spread

Lille are on an incredible 17-game unbeaten run in all competitions. At home, they have been pretty impressive, winning eight out of 12 matches - 67%. Moreover, their only loss at home this year was against PSG, so we can definitely give them a pass on that one.

Nantes are not doing great this year, especially away from home. In the last six road games, they lost four times while losing by two or more goals every time. Also, their only win during that six-game stretch was in the Cup against a lower-tier team, JA Drancy. So, we do not trust them to secure a positive result against Lille.

In the previous five h2h games, Lille won on four occasions. Moreover, Lille won eight out of the last nine h2h games. Considering all the above, we believe that Lille should secure a comfortable home win over Nantes.

Nantes team news

According to speculations, coach Antoine Kombouaré is very close to being fired. Apparently, a win over Rennes granted him some more time, but a possible loss in the upcoming game or two could get him sacked. Habib Bèye is the main candidate to take over the job at this moment.
