Lille - WWDDDW
Samuel Umtiti (Knee surgery), Andrej Ilic (Broken fibula) and Angel Gomes (Hamstring injury) are unavailable for Lille boss Paulo Fonseca.
We think that LOSC will probably kick off with a 4-2-3-1 system for this one with Lucas Chevalier, Bafode Diakite, Leny Yoro, Alexsandro Ribeiro, Ismaily, Benjamin Andre, Nabil Bentaleb, Edon Zhegrova, Remy Cabella, H. Arnar Haraldsson and Jonathan David.
Lille fans will want a repeat of their previous result, being the 2-1 Ligue 1 success versus RC Lens. In that game, Lille managed 49% possession and 15 shots at goal with 6 on target. The only player to score for Lille was Edon Zhegrova (9', 60'). At the other end, Lens got 9 attempts at goal with 3 of them on target. Elye Wahi (78') was the scorer for RC Lens.
Lille haven’t been able to stop scoring goals, finding the back of the net in one hundred percent of their last 6 matches. They have managed to rack up 10 during that period and have conceded a total of 5. Previous results aside, it remains to be seen if such a trend might be maintained in this upcoming game.
Marseille - WWWLLL
Marseille boss Jean-Louis Gasset has to currently contend with reduced team options. Jonathan Clauss (Torn muscle bundle), Bilal Nadir (Cruciate ligament tear), Valentin Rongier (Broken kneecap) and Amir Murillo (Adductor pain) miss out here.
It’s our belief that Les Olympiens could decide to make use of a 4-3-3 system, starting Pau Lopez, Ulisses Garcia, Chancel Mbemba, Leonardo Balerdi, Quentin Merlin, Jordan Veretout, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Pape Gueye, Amine Harit, Iliman Ndiaye and P. Aubameyang.
Since being beaten in their last game against Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1 competition, Marseille will be hoping to turn things around here.
In that game, Marseille had 47% possession and 20 attempts at goal with 10 on target. For their opponents, Paris Saint-Germain got 8 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. Vitinha (53') and Gonçalo Ramos (85') scored for Paris Saint-Germain.
Indicating their penchant for eventful encounters, goals have been seen as many as 20 times in the prior six matches in which Marseille have taken to the pitch, yielding a mean average of 3.33 goals each fixture. Their opponents have got 8 of those goals. nHeading into this contest, Marseille haven't won against Lille when they have played them away from home in the previous 3 matches in the league.

Lopez; Garcia, Balerdi, Gigot, Merlin; Veretout, Gueye, Harit; Henrique, Ndiaye, Aubameyang
Prediction: Lille 2-0 Marseille
No longer enjoying Gasset's new manager bounce and still working with a ravaged set of defensive options, another dismal weekend awaits the Marseille faithful, whose 10-hour journey to the Stade Pierre-Mauroy will likely go unrewarded. Visiting a ground where Lille are hardly ever outclassed and have not failed to score in over a year, the stage is set for Gasset's men to suffer a fourth straight defeat, as Les Dogues enhance their European credentials at the expense of their visitors' top-six hopes.
