LOSC Lille at Paris Saint-Germain 4/3/21 - Ligue 1 Picks & Predictions

A massive affair is taking place on Saturday in the Ligue 1, where PSG and Lille are tied for the first place with 63 points and are now clashing against one another. PSG looked more stable prior to the break, with Lille having slightly lost their superb form over the past couple of months.

PSG (20-7-3) made a huge step towards the title when they beat Lyon by 4-2 on the road, a Lyon side that is one of their two main contenders for the title. PSG did lose a significant match against Nimes at home, but they have now won two in a row. They are sitting at the top of the Ligue 1 with 63 points, but with better goal differential than Lille. They have a 10-4-1 record at home, scoring 35 and conceding 10 goals in the process. However, they’ve won just one of their last four at home (1-2-1).

Lille (18-3-9) are coming off a shocking loss at home against the 18th Nimes, by 2-1. Prior to that they lost by 3-0 on the road against PSG in the round of 16 of the French Cup. Lille have not been in very good shape lately, winning just two of their last 7 matches in all competitions (2-3-2). However, now that their Europa League and their Cup bids ended, they can focus on the Ligue 1. Lille have the 2nd best away record with 9-1-4, scoring 25 and conceding just 9 goals.
