Prediction: 1-1
Lille
All eyes will be on Stade Matmut Atlantique when Bordeaux and Lille take on each other in the Ligue 1 round 23. Bordeaux were more than unfortunate not to grab something from the Lyon clash, with les Gones scoring the winner in the dying minutes of the match. Les Girondins are eager to record their third consecutive win at home in the French top flight, but the game against Lille will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts.
Les Dogues are leading the chase for the Ligue 1 trophy, with the team eyeing their fifth consecutive league win. Anyhow, we are tempted to put our money on both teams to score as both sides are likely to go for a win in Wednesday’s football match. In the first half of the season Lille defeated Bordeaux 2-1 at Stade Pierre-Mauroy. Both Otavio and Zerkane are injured for the hosts, while Pied and Yilmaz remain sidelined for the visitors.
Highlighted Player (Mexer):
Edson Andre Sitoe “Mexer”, who was born in Maputo, Mozambique on September 8, 1988, began his senior career at Desportivo Maputo and he scored three goals in 97 appearances for the club. Mexer played for his home-town club from 2006 to 2010 and in the winter of 2010 he joined Portuguese side Sporting for a fee of €173,000.
The Mozambique centre-back was quickly loaned to Olhanense and it has to be noted that he made 39 appearances for the Primeira Liga club in the league. In 2012 he was sold to fellow Portuguese outfit Nacional and after playing 57 league games for the club, Mexer moved to France. The 187-cm-tall footballer signed a contract with Rennes in January, 2014 and he has been playing for les Rouges et Noirs ever since.
Mexer made his debut for Mozambique national team in 2007 and he represented Os Mambas at the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations. He scored his first goal for Mozambique in a 5-0 win over South Sudan in the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
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.
