Lille vs Galatasaray: our analysis

Why we chose this tip

  1. Table. Lille lie 35th, having collected 1 point after 4 matches (0W 1D 3L); Galatasaray lie 18th, having collected 6 points (2W 0D 2L).
  2. Head to head. In 1 previous meetings, Lille have taken 0 wins to Galatasaray's 1 win, plus 0 draws; the goal tally stands at 2–4.

What to expect

In our view there is little between the sides. We project a 2–1 scoreline, around 3 goals altogether, and the single likeliest outcome is 1–1 (11.6%). This one should be open, with chances at both ends.

Worth noting: the league table leans towards the Galatasaray, but the bookmakers make the home side slight favourites. Mixed signals like these make the game hard to predict, so it pays to bet with caution.

On goals we go for Under 3.5 goals (odds 1.51), which we give a 64% chance. In our view both teams score with a probability of 61%, and over 2.5 goals with a probability of 56%.
