PSG vs Lille Prediction, Betting Tips and Preview

Paris Saint-Germain play host to Lille in a live Ligue 1 match this Tuesday evening. Read the match predictions to find out why a home win is the betting tip at Parc des Princes. PSG were last seen enjoying a 1-3 victory away to Dijon while Lille suffered a shock 0-1 defeat at home to Lorient.

PSG vs Lille Preview

PSG have a number of players out but will nevertheless be able to field a strong team. Marco Verratti, Kevin Trapp, Javier Pastore and Thomas Meunier are injured but the good news is that Angel di Maria has been cleared to play. Layvin Kurzawa is a doubt with a groin problem which should see Maxwell come in at left-back. Edinson Cavani will lead the line for the hosts, looking to add to his impressive haul of 22 goals this season.

Lille will welcome back Vincent Enyeama between the sticks, after the goalkeeper missed the defeat to Lorient last time out. Ricardo Kishna could be given his full debut on the left side of attack after coming off the bench last time. Rio Mavuba and Rony Lopes are both out injured for the visiting side. Nicolas de Preville will be the focal point of Lille’s attack but may find it difficult to add to his lowly tally of just 4 goals so far.

Team Predictions PSG vs Lille

PSG 4-2-3-1 formation: Areola; Maxwell, Kimpembe, Silva, Aurier; Rabiot, Motta; Guedes, ben Arfa, di Maria; Cavani

PSG vs Lille Prediction

Paris Saint-Germain may have missed their chance to go level with Monaco after drawing 1-1 with the Ligue 1 leaders but they’re certainly keeping the pressure on. It’s the only time that they’ve dropped points inside the last ten matches and thrashing Rennes 0-4 away in the cup before easing to victory against Dijon suggests the Parisians have found their stride.

Lille have been struggling for consistency and find themselves nearer to a relegation battle than European qualification, which is what was expected of them at the beginning of the season. Les Dogues looked to have turned the corner with a meritorious 1-2 win away to Lyon before edging Nantes 1-0 in the Coupe de France but it’s back to square one after the loss to Lorient.

Parc des Princes has been a real fortress for PSG and they’re unbeaten at home in fifteen Ligue 1 matches. On the other hand, Lille have won just two league games on the road this season and have lost six of their eleven away matches. I can’t see anything but a comfortable win for the hosts here.
