Lille vs PSG

PSG will be looking to strengthen their grip at the top of the table when they travel to Lille for a French Ligue 1 fixture.

The Parisians remain the team to beat in France, although they appear to have a few serious challengers this season. They should have the upper hand over the hosts, who have stumbled a bit in recent weeks.

Lille News

Lille have been a bit unconvincing lately, claiming three wins and suffering two defeats in their last five matches across all competitions. Bruno Genesio's team are currently sixth in the table and will be keen to push for a place further up the standings.

Les Dogues will head into Sunday's clash off the back of a 1-0 victory at Roma in a UEFA Europa League fixture. That was a solid return to winning ways for the hosts, who were beaten 1-0 at home last time out in Ligue 1.

Lille often show their quality going forward and have scored in six of their last eight matches across all competitions. However, they are also without a clean sheet in six of those matches, while five of those fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals.

PSG News

PSG are still top of Ligue 1 but only on goal difference, with Lyon keeping close tabs on them. The champions have only lost once across all competitions this season, a 1-0 defeat at Marseille in their previous away fixture.

Beyond that defeat at Marseille, PSG have won every other match this season, including a 2-0 home victory over Auxerre last time out in Ligue 1. Luis Enrique's team also claimed a 2-1 win at Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League in midweek and will head into Sunday's clash full of confidence.

Even in the absence of Ousmane Dembele and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, the goals continue to flow for PSG, who have scored in seven of their last eight matches. However, they are without a clean sheet in their last three away matches, two of which have produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

PSG have eight wins and two draws, while Lille have only picked up two victories in the last 12 matches. The Parisians won both meetings last season, with the away clash ending in a 3-1 victory.

Verdict

Lille v PSG

It is usually an open contest between PSG and Lille, with both teams scoring in their last eight meetings. Seven of those matches have produced over 2.5 goals, and Sunday's clash could be set to serve up a similar outcome.

PSG have won seven of their eight matches this season and have also been victorious in seven of the last eight meetings with Lille. The Parisians should maintain their dominance over the hosts, who have been unconvincing lately.
