Last Game: Angers 1-0 Lille
Saturday, April 8 at 4pm in Ligue 1

We said: Lille 2-1 Montpellier HSC

There was no shortage of shots for Lille against Angers last weekend - Les Dogues simply came up against a goalkeeper in inspired form - and a similar volume of chances created with a little more ruthlessness should spell success for the hosts this weekend. While it is too early to tell what sort of effect defeat to Toulouse may have on Der Zakarian's Montpellier, we cannot see any way for La Paillade to end Lille's phenomenal unbeaten streak at home, even if a clean sheet is not on the cards for Fonseca's team.
