Lille made it to the Champions League in Ligue 1 last season, and now they intend to consolidate their success. The debut in the championship was not easy for the Red-Blue, but they gradually gained momentum. In the last ten rounds, they have five wins and five draws, moving up to fourth place in the standings.

Lille are also playing well in the Champions League. In the five starting rounds, the French lost only to Sporting - 0:2, shared points with Juventus - 1:1, beat Real Madrid - 1:0, Atletico - 3:1, as well as Bologna - 2:1. With ten points they are on the 12th line in the standings.

Sturm spends this season in the status of the reigning Austrian champion, and clearly intends to defend the title won a year earlier. The Black and Whites had a couple of misfires in their league debut, but in the last ten games they have seven wins and three draws, taking the lead in the standings.

The Austrians are not doing so well on the international stage. In the four starting rounds of the general stage of the Champions League, they lost to Brest - 1:2, Bruges - 0:1, Sporting - 0:2, as well as Borussia - 0:1. Only in the last game they defeated Girona - 1:0, rising to 29th place in the standings.

Lille is great in the current draw of the Champions League and has every chance to even get into the top 8 to directly enter the 1/8 finals of the tournament. In the last four rounds, the French have scored 10 out of 12 possible points, which in itself indicates their excellent form. Moreover, the last time they lost in all tournaments was in mid-September, after which they did not know the bitterness of defeat in 14 games. As a result, we can bet on Lille to win with a total over 1.5 goals.
