THE PREDICTION
Lille may have lost to PSG in the Coup de France midweek but they benefitted from those same opponents losing to Nantes in the league last weekend as Christophe Galtier’s side are three points clear at the top of the table heading into this fixture. With title rivals PSG and Lyon facing each other later in the evening, they will see this clash with Nimes as a golden opportunity to steal a march, especially as the visitors are winless in their last three. Nimes are fighting for their lives in the battle to avoid relegation and certainly won’t lack motivation for this fixture, but Lille’s class should ultimately tell.
