Tip and bets
In our opinion, the current champion of France is a clear favourite of the match. Lille managed to step up in recent matches and they are a much better team than the Blood and Golds. We are expecting a victory from Les Dogues.
Our prediction - Lille to go through
We are not expecting many goals and goal opportunities in this match. Two even opponents will try to advance into the next round of French Cup, so teams will play defensively in an attempt to keep a clean sheet.
Our second bet is on total under 2,5 goals
