Slavia Prague vs Lille Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Daniel Ngulu in Champions League Predictions
Czech Republic side Slavia Prague will welcome their French counterparts Lille for the Champions League Play-off return match this Wednesday. With a place in the league phase of the competition at stake, here’s our preview and prediction of this match set for the Fortuna Arena starting 8pm GMT.
The hosts have an uphill task coming into the game with a 2-0 deficit after falling in France in the first leg. Despite having to play in Valenciennes, Lille did well to ensure they carry a comfortable lead to the Czech capital.
It wasn’t easy though, as they were held off until in the second half before subduing a hard-fighting Slavia Prague. The return leg hosts have work to do if they are to stay in the premier club competition in Europe. Their history against Lille doesn’t make this a very promising week.
Slavia Prague have three losses against Lille in Europe and conceded 10 goals in the process.

Slavia Prague - Lille: Form Analysis
After finishing top in their Europa League group last season, Slavia Prague are expected to make the step up. That can only be getting a slot in the Champions League proper. So far this expectation is not coming to fruition after their first leg stumble.
The loss in France was only their first defeat this season and Jindrich Trpišovský will have reason to believe they can turn things around. The loss came on the back of six straight wins, four of them with clean sheets.
Slavia Prague have now failed to score in two of their last eight matches. In their Champions League journey this season, the hosts have already eliminated Belgian side Union Saint-Gilloise. They won 3-1 in the home leg of that tie and will hope to replicate, if not better that.
Unbeaten Lille inflicted Slavia Prague's first defeat of the season in the first leg meeting.
Lille’s commanding lead in this tie is courtesy of goals from Jonathan David and Edon Zhegrova. So far it has been a good season for Lille, who are also joint top in Ligue 1 with six points.
In the third qualifying round of the Champions League, Les Dogues eliminated Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahçe. They only needed to avoid defeat in the away leg after winning home and the French side did it, playing to a dramatic 1-1 draw in Turkey.
Lille conceded in both legs of that round but coming to this game, they’ve fastened at the back. The visitors are on three straight clean sheets and scored twice in each of those three matches. They warmed up for this midweek game with a 2-0 win at home to Angers in Ligue 1 on Saturday.
In this form, Slavia Prague have a tough outing coming up.

Slavia Prague & Lille Squad Analysis
Slavia Prague had a free weekend and will come into this game fresh, hoping to overturn the two-goal deficit. They have no injuries reported ahead of this fixture. With the team set to go all out attacking, Jindrich Trpišovský could name a back three.
Skipper Tomas Holes will stand tall in defence with Ivan Schranz expected to lead the hunt for goals.
Canadian forward Jonathan David is once again proving a key player for Lille!
Jonathan David has picked up strongly at this early stage of the season and remains a threat ahead of this game. He has three goals in the last four matches and will be looking to add some more.
Edon Zhegrova has also been chipping in with the goals and after his late one in the first leg, remains a player to watch. He served a domestic ban in their weekend match and will be very fresh for this encounter.
Lille will, however, be without Aissa Mandi, Angel Gomes, Nabil Bentaleb and Ismaily.

Our Slavia Prague vs Lille Prediction
Slavia Prague have all to gain in this game and we don’t expect them to sit back. As they are an attacking side, we should see a goal or two from the home side, given their returns thus far in the season. They have failed to score in just two of their eight matches so far and after resting this weekend, they’ll be energized well here.
Lille are also coming to this game with a good scoring run and in-form forwards. We don’t see how Slavia Prague will completely shut the French side out. Our prediction for Slavia Prague v Lille is for both teams to score.
