Nice – Lille

Nice head into the encounter languishing in 18th place with just two points from four games, having failed to win any matches and managed only one goal while conceding five. Lille sit comfortably atop the table on 10 points, unbeaten in four outings, boasting three victories and a draw and a healthy +5 goal difference after scoring seven and letting in two. The gulf in form is stark, with the French champions looking to extend their dominance and the struggling hosts desperate to snap their winless run. If Lille can translate their statistical superiority into the match, they will likely widen the gap at the summit, while Nice will need a miracle to turn their season around.
