Form
OGC Nice (in all competitions): D-W-W-L-D
LOSC Lille (in all competitions): D-D-W-W-D
Players to Watch:
Mohamed Ali Cho (OGC Nice)
The young right winger is already a regular at OGC Nice this season. He has two goals while operating from the right, and none while playing as a striker. So, he needs to start from the wings again.
Cho has a good pace but struggles to play the full 90 minutes. He has always been subbed off. It will be very crucial for him to look lethal from the initial stages, and penetrate the back-lines whenever given a chance, only then can he score more.
Benjamin André (LOSC Lille)
The veteran defensive-midfielder is currently captaining LOSC Lille. He has been really impressive even at this age, especially with his off-the-ball movements. The skipper is never shy of being booked whenever his team is at risk of consuming goals.
But, now he needs to be a bit careful as he is already having four yellows. His blocks and interceptions will be very crucial for the team’s defense to not face serious situations. Having already played over 200 games for the club, he already knows the situation well and is expected to act wisely in the game.

- Both teams have lost two games in the ongoing Ligue 1.
- Both teams have faced nine goals in Ligue 1 this season.
- The two teams are in the exact same position in the points table, where they finished last season (2023-24).
