Lille vs PSG Ligue 1 prediction: Dogues seeking to halt Parisian momentum
Lille host champions Paris Saint-Germain in a meeting of clubs who both boast 100% records early into the Ligue 1 season.
Three predictions for Lille vs PSG
Lille 1-3 PSG (12/1 with Bet365)
Lille have won only one of their last five home games against PSG. Additionally, PSG have been dominant against Lille recently, going unbeaten in their last six Ligue 1 meetings, with five wins and one draw.
Jonathan David to score anytime (15/8 with Bet365)
Lille striker Jonathan David has scored four goals against PSG in Ligue 1. Among current players in the top-flight, only Terem Moffi and Ignatus Ganago (five goals each) have scored more frequently against the capital club.
BTTS Yes (4/6 with Bet365)
In their last six meetings, both Lille and PSG have scored.
How both teams go into Lille vs PSG
Lille has started off strong, heading into matchday three with two wins. In their most recent match, they secured a 2-0 victory against Reims and repeated the scoreline against Angers. Lille achieved this feat in the 2003-04 season, winning their first three matches without conceding a goal. The former champions have also scored a league-high 25 goals at home in Ligue 1 this year (in 10 games), with PSG second in this regard (23 in 9).
PSG, meanwhile, could start a Ligue 1 season by winning each of their first three games for the sixth time in the last ten seasons, which would be more than all the other teams combined (five before Monaco-Lens). Luis Enrique’s team started with a 4-1 win over Le Havre and followed it up with a 6-0 victory over Montpellier in their second game, during which they had 27 shots, controlled possession, and scored six goals with four different players.
“I don’t think you saw one star but 16 who came out to fight for Paris Saint-Germain’s colours: 16 stars in attack, 16 stars in defence. That is what perfection is,” the manager said after the win.
Lille host PSG at Stade Pierre-Mauroy on Sunday at 7:45pm.
