Chelsea vs Lille Betting Tips

by JohnnyBet from

2019/20 UEFA Champions League Group H has been tight throughout and the two qualification places will go down to the wire on the final round of fixtures. Having reached the semi-final last season, Ajax look well placed at the top of the group to qualify, despite losing some of their key players in the summer.

Valencia and Chelsea are 2 points below the Dutch champions but it is Chelsea who are in pole position to qualify as they face Lille at home in their final fixture of the group. The French club have been by far the weakest team in this group and have picked up just a single point from their previous 5 matches.

However, Chelsea will also be relying on Ajax to beat or at least draw against Valencia at home on the same night to ensure they progress to the Round of 16. There is a tense night in store in Group H so continue below for our Chelsea vs Lille predictions and the latest Chelsea vs Lille betting odds.

1. Chelsea vs Lille Preview

Chelsea find themselves in a strong position in the group despite having only won two of their 5 matches in the Champions League this season. The victories have both come away from home, with the first being an excellent 1-0 win at Ajax and the second a 2-1 victory over upcoming opponents Lille, in France.

The Blues have also drawn two of their Champions League games, picking up a point at home against Ajax and away in their most recent fixture against Valencia. Therefore, Chelsea have been far from consistent in the Champions League this season and are yet to win a home match in the competition.

Now would be a great time for them to pick up their first victory in the Champions League in front of their own fans. The bookmakers believe they are the clear favourites to win this game and the latest Chelsea vs Lille betting odds have the hosts at just 2/11 with bet365 to come out on top.

2. Chelsea vs Lille Predictions

Lille have really struggled in the Champions League this season, picking up just a single point from their 5 games. They come into this match with nothing to play for in terms of progress in Europe this season as they cannot qualify for the Europa League.

Lille started their Champions League campaign with a 3-0 defeat away to Ajax and despite finding an equaliser in their second match, which was at home against Chelsea, the Ligue 1 club eventually lost the game 2-1. They finally picked up their first point in a 1-1 draw at home against Valencia but needed a last minute equaliser.

Following that draw, Lille have lost their last two Champions League games, going down 4-1 at Valencia and losing 2-0 at home against Ajax last time out. Lille will be playing for pride and nothing more at Stamford Bridge and the bookmakers believe they have very little chance of taking anything from the match.

The Chelsea vs Lille betting odds have the away team out at 12/1 to win, with the draw also available at 6/1, both with bet365.

3. Chelsea vs Lille Betting Odds

Chelsea have not had things all their own way at home in the Champions League this season and are yet to win a game at Stamford Bridge. The home fans will be expecting Chelsea to win this game comfortably but may not have things all their own way against a team which have nothing to lose. We expect Chelsea to come out on top but the winning margin may not be as great as The Blues fans hope.

The Chelsea vs Lille betting odds offer 3/1 with bet365 for Chelsea to win this game by a 2 goal margin.

Lille have conceded 12 goals at an average of 2.4 goals across their 5 Champions League matches, with 7 of those goals coming in their two previous away games. That suggests Lille have struggled to defend away from home and Chelsea should be able to take advantage of this to score a few goals in this game.

You can get 5/6 with bet365 for Chelsea to score over 2.5 goals in this match. As this is very close to the average number of goals conceded by Lille in the Champions League this season, it seems a very good bet.
