Lille are enduring a tough start to the season and are so far a pale shadow of the team that won the Ligue 1 title last season. They are bottom of Group G of the UEFA Champions League and will be hoping to collect three points when they host Sevilla on Match Day 3. Heading into the game they have one point, while second placed Sevilla have two. Lille are coming from a 1-0 loss to Clermont, their second loss in the last three matches. In the last 10 matches, Lille have two clean sheets and only four wins. They’ve failed to score in three of the last seven but will be banking on their home run, which has been a bit fair. They are unbeaten in their last four home matches, with three wins in there. The same can’t be said of their run in the Champions League though; Lille have no win in the last 11 Champions League matches. They’ve lost eight of the 11, and in the same competition at home, they have just one clean sheet in nine matches.

Sevilla go to this game straight from a 1-0 win over Celta Vigo and will be eyeing three points, which could see them go top of the group standings. The win over Celta Vigo was their third in five matches and they’ve only failed to score in one of their last five matches – against Granada. While they have just one loss in their last six away matches, they’ve managed only two wins, and kept three clean sheets. They haven’t conceded more than a goal in their last six away matches. Sevilla are winless in four Champions League matches, three of them being draws, and they have no clean sheet in the last eight Champions League games. Still, they are unbeaten in eight straight away matches in the competition; they’ve won three and drawn five.
