THE PREDICTION
Lorient were mere moments away from coming away from Monaco with a win last weekend so the manner in which they conceded a late Ben Yedder equaliser will have hurt, but they are now six games unbeaten in all competitions and will not fear the visit of title-chasing Lille. The visitors were held by Brest last time out which ended their six-game winning run in all competitions but they remain in superb defensive form having kept clean sheets in five consecutive league games. They have a tendency to secure low-scoring wins and against such an in-form side, it is likely to be a game of few chances so backing under 2.5 goals looks like the way to play this one.
