Red Star

The match between Lille and Red Star is presented as an interesting clash in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Europa League. Although Lille has a higher status, its recent performance has not been convincing. In contrast, Red Star arrives in remarkable form, making the result less predictable than it might seem at first glance.

Analysis of Lille

In the last month, Lille has had an inconsistent performance, with only two wins in its last five games. These matches included a narrow victory over Freiburg in the Europa League and a French Cup triumph against a lower division team. However, the situation in Ligue 1 is worrying, since they have not won in several rounds and are in 18th place, far from the qualification zone for European competitions.

Lille's last 5 games:

• Lille 1 – 1 Brest
• Metz 0 – 0 Lille
• Lyon 1 – 0 Lille
