Lille vs Slavia Prague prediction

The Les Dogues will cut short their celebrations after a 3-2 aggregate dramatic win over Fenerbahce, thanks to Jonathan David’s 118th-minute strike, securing them a place in the Champions League playoffs. The new manager understands the significance of this qualification after a long absence from football at this level. Lille will be hoping to replicate their 2-0 win in their opening fixture in Ligue 1 and repeat the historical victory over Slavia from 15 years ago.

On the other hand, Slavia Prague goes into this fixture with a good run of form, being unbeaten in their last 7 games. Jindrich Tripsovsky will certainly want to overturn the two historical defeats from 15 years ago against the hosts. After defeating Uion Saint Gilloise 4-1 on aggregate, Slavia has made it this far against Lille. The Cervenobili made history last season as they finished on top in their group, but AC Milan saw them bow out in the last sixteen.

In the 2009 Europa group, Lille beat Slavia 8-2 on aggregate. Perhaps now is the time for the Czech side to make their mark against the French side, who have not lost to a Czech team in such a competition. Lille may not be in their best form, unlike the visitors, but a well-fought battle is expected from both teams. This leads us to predict a 2-1 victory for Lille against Slavia Prague.
