Lille vs Feyenoord Prediction
Bruno Genesio’s Lille suffered a 2-1 defeat to Liverpool at Anfield last week but did perform well, as they have done throughout the campaign, in a game that ended a 21-match unbeaten run of form across all competitions. They followed up that loss against Liverpool by also losing 2-1 to Strasbourg the other day with Strasbourg turning the game on its head mid-way through the second-half. Feyenoord have drawn too often in the Eredivisie this season but Brian Priske’s side hammered Bayern Munich by three goals to nil last week to mean they have a chance of a top eight finish in the UEFA Champions League league phase. The pressure is generally off both of these sides and both teams scoring would appear a good bet.
Lille vs Feyenoord Tip: Both teams to score
