Lille hosts Paris Saint-Germain in round 23 of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Sunday, February 6th at Stade Pierre-Mauroy (Villeneuve d'Ascq)
Lille is the reigning champion of the country. But the team will not be able to defend the title, as it is going through hard times now. The creator of success, coach Christophe Galtier, moved to Nice, which is now ranked second in the Ligue 1 standings. And Lille is taking only eleventh place. Instability is the main characteristic of the Mastiffs in the 2021/2022 season. Jocelyn Gourvennec failed to readjust the team and put it on a winning path. The club's management sold many key players. Without high-quality transfers and game reorganization, Lille will not be able to achieve a positive result. Let’s recall that the Mastiffs managed to lose to modest Brest in the previous round of the French championship (2-0).

PSG players will approach the upcoming game in a bad mood. On Monday, the team left the French Cup at the 1/8 final stage, losing to Nice on penalties. The dismissal of Mauricio Pochettino is becoming more and more real every day. The media are predicting the arrival of Zinedine Zidane. Paris Saint-Germain is confidently topping the French Championship standings, but even with such a stellar line-up, it is very difficult to call the Parisians a stable team. They cannot boast of good results on foreign pitches: only four victories in the last ten away matches in all competitions. At the same time, all four opponents had a weak level.
Both teams are not in the best condition right now. Lille significantly lacks stability, while PSG has two problems. Firstly, Pochettino can't find the right approach to the Parisian stars. Secondly, there is an overcrowded infirmary. Given these aspects, as well as the fact that the teams didn’t score more than three goals in seven head-to-head confrontations in a row, we recommend betting on Under 3.0 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 goals scored
