Recent head-to-head encounters between Lille and Monaco have often been narrow, hard-fought battles. Lille hold a slight edge, with three wins from the last six meetings. In contrast, Monaco have managed just one victory in that span, coming in 2024.
Lille team overview
An eventful 3-3 draw against Brest in the opening game of the new season — headlined by the return of 38-year-old Olivier Giroud, who scored on his Lille debut — highlighted both strengths and weaknesses in Lille’s performance. Defense was their strongest area last season, as they finished the 2024/25 Ligue 1 campaign with the second-best defensive record among all 20 teams, conceding just 35 goals — only PSG allowed fewer.
Lille will be without three players for this game: Håkon Arnar Haraldsson, Ismaily, and Samuel Umtiti all remain sidelined.

Monaco team overview
Monaco enjoyed a successful 2024/25 Ligue 1 campaign, finishing third in the table and securing qualification for the Champions League group stage. They impressed with their attacking strength, ranking as the fifth-best offensive side in the league with 63 goals scored. However, their away form was less convincing, as they managed just two wins in their last ten Ligue 1 matches on the road.
For this weekend, Monaco will be without three players: Edan Diop remains sidelined with a broken leg, Folarin Balogun is recovering from a shoulder dislocation, and Mohammed Salisu is still out through injury.

Prediction
Although Lille squandered a two-goal lead in their opening game of the season against Brest, they still showcased plenty of exciting attacking talent. The team remains capable of strong defensive performances, as highlighted by having the second-best defensive record last season, and they are currently unbeaten in six consecutive Ligue 1 home matches. Lille have also defeated Monaco three times in their last six head-to-head encounters, so we expect them to secure at least a draw on Sunday.
Three reasons we expect Double chance x1
- Lille have registered 3 wins out of the possible 6 against Monaco in most recent H2H encounters
- Lille are undefeated in 6 consecutive Ligue 1 home matches
- Monaco have only recorded 2 wins in the last 10 away league matches
