THE PREDICTION
If results go their way and Lille get over the line with three points then the northerners could be crowned champions as early as this weekend. The ever-impressive, already two-time French manager of the year Christophe Galtier has built a side of incision, industry and impressive balance led by Turkish captain Burak Yilmaz - one of the best strikers in Europe this season at the age of 35. They come up against a Claude Puel-led Saint-Etienne that have won five of their last eight in the league and one of those three in which they didn’t was when they took a 78th minute lead at PSG only to go down 3-2. Despite that impressive form, Lille will still be confident of inching closer to their fourth title.
