Lille’s title defence in Ligue 1 has been shambolic. They are set to host Monaco in their next game, looking to bounce back from a 3-0 loss to Troyes. Placed 10th, Lille have managed 51 points so far, that is 11 behind Monaco, who are fourth. Lille are set to miss out on European football next season, and they take to this game a really poor run, having managed just one win in five. Lille’s win over Strasbourg is sandwiched in three losses in the last four matches but they’ve failed to score in just one of the last five matches. They are coming from a 3-0 loss away to Troyes, the third time in four matches that they’ve conceded two or more goals. three of their last five matches have ended in. over 2.5 goals and in three of the same five matches, both teams have scored. Lille haven’t managed more than a goal in any of their last five games.

Monaco have a very good run going into this game and being in the chase for a top two slot they will be looking to win here. The visitors have seven straight wins ahead of this game and are unbeaten in eight. They are behind second placed Marseille by three points and with three matches to play they will feel confident enough. The big improvement will have to be in the defence here, with Monaco having registered just two clean sheets in the last five matches. In attack they’ve been superb, scoring two or more goals in four of the last five matches and the high scoring nature of their recent matches has seen three of the last five produce over 2.5 goals. Three straight away wins in Ligue 1 will further build Monaco’s confidence and a win will be high in their ambitions for this clash.
