Game: LILLE vs GRENOBLE
Type: FRANCE LIGUE 1
Date: 21 March, 2009
PREVIEW
Unbeaten and not conceded in their last 3, Lille has steadily climbed into the top 6 and challenging for next season's European spot. Remarkable as it seems, they hold the best home record to date in the French Ligue 1, and remaining unbeaten in their last 14 matches at home. Lille averages 2.00 goals per game at home, which is pretty high in this league.
Their opponents, newly promoted Grenoble, should provide stiff competition to Lille. This is due to their consistent performance and gritty display which has made them difficult to break down. They remain unbeaten in their last 8 in all competitions, and conceding a measly 1.00 goal per game away. The last time both teams met it ended with 0-0.
KWIK STATS
HOME > LILLE
AWAY > GRENOBLE
THE PICK
At 1 ball handicap, GRENOBLE is definitely worth backing as i don't see Lille being able to overcome the stout defense of the newly promoted team easily.
