Nantes vs Lille Betting Tips - Nantes or Draw 

Nantes enter Saturday’s Ligue 1 clash with the looming threat of relegation still hanging over them. The Canaries have endured a difficult month with four defeats suffered in five league games played since the start of February. 

Placed 14th in the division, and only three points above the relegation play-off position, Antoine Kombouare´s side fell to a 1:0 defeat against Strasbourg in their most recent fixture.

Prior to last weekend's home reversal, Nantes had enjoyed a decent run of form at Stade de la Beaujoire with eight points collected from five previous matches in front of their own fans (W2, D2, L1). 

While hardly in the best of form, Nantes will see Saturday's fixture as a winnable one with Lille potentially mentally fatigued after their midweek Champions League heartbreak against Dortmund. After taking a first-half lead, two goals conceded in the second period denied Les Dogues a UCL quarter-final spot.

Currently 5th in Ligue 1, only two points behind third-placed Nice, Lille remain in the hunt to return to the Champions League next season. However, a poor run of away form has put a dent in their chances. Les Dogues failed to win six of their last seven Ligue 1 road games and with Wednesday's defeat fresh in the mind, it could be tough for Bruno Génésio to lift his charges for Sunday´s trip to Stade de la Beaujoire.

In the midst of an inconsistent period, Lille failed to win six of their last 11 league fixtures, while they have fallen to defeat in six of their 12 most recent matches (all competitions), including Wednesday´s UCL loss.

Given Lille´s tough schedule which sees them face their fifth match in 15 days, and their mental fatigue, I fancy Nantes to break their losing run by picking up a point or more this weekend.

Nantes or draw is my top tip at Stade de la Beaujoire - Louis Fonteneau.
