Prediction: 1-2
Lille
Lille will be looking to win their first Ligue 1 title since 2011 when they take on Angers on the last day of the season. Les Dogues are one point clear of second-place PSG, meaning that this has to go down as a must-win game for the league leaders. Important defender Jose Fonte misses the match through suspension, while Isaac Lihadji remains in the recovery room. Anyhow, away win should be considered as Angers have nothing to play for in Sunday’s clash.
Les Scoistes experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-2 loss to Olympique Marseille, and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Lille’s party at Stade Raymond-Kopa. It has to be noted that all Amadou, Traore, Doumbia, Bamba, Boufal, and Ebosse are sidelined with injuries, while Alioui remains quarantined after he was tested positive for coronavirus.
Highlighted Player (Romain Thomas):
Romain Thomas is a product of Brest football academy and he made three appearances for the first team during his spell at Stade Francis-Le Bie. Thomas spent the 2008/2009 season on loan at Pacy Vallee-d’Eure and in 2010 he moved to lower-league side USJA Carquefou.
After spending three seasons at the club the 193-cm-tall defender, who is very good in the air, moved to Angers. Romain Thomas quickly established himself as a first team regular at the club and you should know that he made 36 appearances for the Ligue 1 side in the 2016/2017 season.
Despite playing as a defender, the French footballer often finds the net and he scored his first goal for Angers on September 27, 2013 in a 1-1 draw with Tours. The centre-back, whose preferred foot is right, was born in Landerneau, France on June 12, 1988. Romain Thomas’ contract with les Scoistes expires on June 30, 2019.
Highlighted Team (Lille):
Lille have been playing an important role in French football ever since they were founded in 1944. Les Dogues won their first domestic trophy in the 1945/1946 season.
Lille did well to win their second Ligue 1 title in 1954 and 57 years later they lifted their last domestic title. Les Douges finished the 2010/2011 season in top position in the standings, eight points clear of second-placed Olympique Marseille and it has to be noted that Lille attacker Moussa Sow won the Golden Boot (25 goals).
Lille are one of the two teams that managed to win three consecutive Coupe de France trophies (1946, 1947, 1948), but they have yet to clinch the Coupe de la Ligue title. Les Dogues faced PSG in the 2015/2016 Coupe de la Ligue trophy, but les Parisiens proved to be a big catch for Frederic Antonetti’s team in the title game.
Lille play their home matches at Stade Pierre-Mauroy and the capacity of the stadium is 50.186. The venue was opened in August, 2017 and the construction cost €282 million.
