Lille vs Monaco Prediction & Betting Tips (29 October)

Arriving in 5th position in the ranking last season, Lille will certainly be one of the teams to follow in the race for the podium or at least for European places. After a mixed start, the Mastiffs have accelerated in recent weeks by winning 2 wins over the last 3 days. Victorious at Le Havre 1-2, they were held to a draw by Lens 1-1 in the Northern derby before winning a very important victory against Brest 1-0 last week. This allows Paulo Fonseica's men to occupy 4th place in the ranking, 3 units from the podium.

At the same time, Lille is playing in the Europa Conference League. After being able to win against Olimpija Ljubljana 2-0 and being held in check by the Faroes of Klaksvik 0-0, they had all the trouble in the world to defeat Slovan Bratislava on Thursday evening 2-1 and thus take the commands of their group.

The long-term injured and excellent defender Djalo could be the only player from this Lille team to have to withdraw since young English midfielder Angel Gomes returns from suspension this Sunday. Uncertainty all the same around the participation of the important Ismaily, Yoro and Haraldsson, all withdrawn from C4. Furthermore, young striker Virginius was in the group against Slovan but could once again be left out by Paulo Fonseca in L1. Against the Finisterians, it was the Turkish international Yacizi who scored the only goal for his team for what was his second goal of the season. He therefore equaled Canadian center forward David and captain André in the scorers rankings for this team. The first two cities also found the mark against Bratislava on Thursday.

On the Monegasque side, the defender recruited this summer Salisu, the starting piston Caio Henrique, and the Swiss striker Embolo are still on the flank. To this we add that the senior defender Maripan and the full-back Vanderson are not guaranteed to be traveling to the North. On the other hand, Swiss international Zakaria and midfielder revelation at the start of the season Magassa are back from suspension after missing the Metz reception last Sunday. Adi Hütter has a lot of people in his group with the presence of the Japanese international Minamino (3 goals, 3 assists), the French hopeful international Akliouche (3 goals), the often decisive Ben Yedder (5 goals) and the American Balogun (3 goals). But last Sunday, the light came from the Russian Golovin who scored two superb goals to give his team the victory for what were his 3rd and 4th goals of the season.
