Chelsea vs Lille Match Preview

Chelsea have only two Champions League victories this season, and one of them was vs Lille in their away game in the first round. They are in bad shape recently. Specifically, in their last 5 matches in all competition, Chelsea have won only once and lost 3 times. They scored 6 goals in these games but they conceded 9 times.

Meanwhile, Lille are won their last 3 Ligue 1 matches with the same score, 1-0. But this battle is a completely different story. Lille has no chance of going forward in this competition, as they have bagged only1 draw after 5 matches.

Chelsea are definitely the stronger team and they currently only have problems in the domestic league. They need the three-pointer to secure their spot in the first duo of this group. Historically, the two teams only met each other exactly once, which was the first-round match, when Chelsea won 2-1. I expect a comfortable win for the 'Blues' in this one, Chelsea to cover the AH -1.5 is my call.
