Lille will be looking to keep their hopes of playing in the Europa League next season alive when they host third-placed Marseille on Saturday night.
Les Dogues have not only failed to win in their last two games, but have also failed to score a goal in that time. Paulo Fonseca's team owes its position in the table mainly to its home strength, as only PSG, Lens and Rennes have recorded more home wins this season. Boasting a run of fourteen home games without defeat, some will see Lille as favorites to take the three points in this fixture.
Marseille, on the other hand, have picked up four wins from their last five games. As for away games, apart from PSG, no team in Ligue 1 has recorded more away wins than the visitors this season. However, having not only lost but also failed to score in their last two away games at Lille, they will need to be at their best to take anything from this game.
Lille vs Marseille betting tips: Both teams to score
Despite Marseille's good away record, they are severely lacking in defense. In the last nine Ligue 1 games, they managed to keep a clean sheet only once.
Since both teams managed to score at least once in eight of those games, we expect goals on both sides on Saturday night.

Lille team news
Tiago Djaló is struggling with a cruciate ligament injury and Saturday's game is likely to come too soon for the 23-year-old center back.
Jonathan David is third in the race for the Golden Boot in Ligue 1 this season with 21 goals. The 23-year-old is expected to lead the line despite not scoring in his last three league games.

Marseille team news
Marseille will have to do without Azzedine Ounahi and Amine Harit, who have suffered a toe and cruciate ligament injury respectively.
Dimitri Payet made the most of his rare Ligue 1 start against Angers last weekend, and the 36-year-old will be hoping to rejoin Alexis Sanchez and Ruslan Malinovskyi in the final third.
