LOSC Lille vs Feyenoord Prediction 29.01.2025 | Champions League

• Competition: UEFA Champions League - Matchday 8
• Date: Wednesday, 29th, January 2025
• Kickoff: 20:00 UK / 21:00 CEST
• Venue: Stade Pierre-Mauroy (Villeneuve d'Ascq)

With a spot in the last-16 within reach, LOSC Lille and Feyenoord will face off at Stade Pierre-Mauroy in Wednesday’s crucial UEFA Champions League league-phase finale.

During last week’s visit to Anfield, the Mastiffs saw their three-and-a-half-month unbeaten sequence across all competitions come to an end, a streak that included 12 wins and 9 draws, as they were narrowly beaten 1-2 by Liverpool. Even though the setback was somewhat expected, it seems to have had a damaging effect on LOSC Lille, as they found themselves facing a Ligue 1 collapse just four days later, throwing away a first-half lead before ultimately falling to a 1-2 defeat at Strasbourg.

As for Feyenoord, they have certainly faltered in the Eredivisie, sitting fourth on the table with a massive 13-point deficit to the table leaders PSV Eindhoven, which essentially means their dreams of winning the title have already been shattered. However, the Rotterdam squad has shocked many with their recent showings in the Champions League, as after a spectacular 3-3 draw at Manchester City, they delivered a memorable show last week in front of their De Kuip faithful, blasting Bayern Munich 3-0, reigniting their top-eight hopes.

LOSC Lille vs Feyenoord Betting Tips: BTTS

Given that both teams will enter the final matchday with equal chances of claiming all three points, we are hoping for an open contest with the nets bulging at both ends. Defensive consistency has been a major issue for LOSC Lille lately, highlighted by their ability to secure clean sheets in just two of their previous 12 games in all tournaments. Such defensive frailty from the Mastiffs will surely be capitalized on by Feyenoord in the best possible way, especially given that they have showcased remarkable attacking prowess in recent UCL matches, holding Man City to a thrilling 3-3 draw before dismantling Sparta Prague 4-2 and Bayern Munich 3-0 in their last outing. In the defensive department, however, the Rotterdam club has proven to be easily breached, standing out negatively as the team with the worst defensive record among those in reward-bearing positions, having conceded 15 goals in their first seven matches. Based on all these statistical insights, combined with the fact that both teams will push aggressively for maximum points, we anticipate an enticing contest where goals will flow freely at both ends.
