The recent form has been inconsistent, especially in defense where they have been unable to keep clean sheets. They have 1 win and 4 losses in their last 5 outings in Ligue 1. The losses included a 7-1 demolition away to Monaco, which laid bare their defensive frailties.
Injuries have also played their part in Nantes’ difficult season. Currently, three players are sidelined ahead of their home match against Lille. Center-forward Tino Kadewere (leg injury), center-back Nathan Zézé (ankle injury), and Fabien Centonze (knee injury) will not be available for selection on Saturday.
On current form, our football bet predictions show that Nantes will have a difficult time on Saturday against Lille.
Nantes Predicted Lineup vs Lille (5-3-2): Lopes; Thomas, Amian, Castelletto, Pallois, Coco; Lepenant, Augusto, Leroux; Abline, Mohamed.
Lille Team News
Lille are in a relatively good run of form as they step up their bid for a Champions League place in the latter stages of the Ligue 1 campaign. They have won three times and lost twice in their last five outings.
Bruno Génésio’s men have collected 44 points and sit 5th on the table; they are level on points with 4th placed Monaco and a further 2 behind third-placed Nice. They will need some consistency in the remaining matches, starting with Saturday’s clash against Nantes, if they are to make it into the Champions League places.

Bruno Génésio will have to contend with three injury worries in the trip to Nantes. Right-back Tiago is sidelined with a cruciate ligament tear, right winger Edon Zhegrova is out with adductor pain, and center-back Samuel Umtiti is nursing a calf injury. These players will play no part in the clash against Nantes.
Lille are the favorites to walk away with three points from Nantes on Sunday. However, Bruno Génésio will not take anything for granted.
Lille Predicted Lineup (4-2-3-1): Chevalier; Meunier, Diakité, Alexsandro, Ismaily; André, Bouaddi; Cabella, Mukau, Haraldsson; David.

Jonathan David is a safe pick to get on the scoresheet for Lille on Saturday. He is the designated penalty taker for the team and has scored 6 out of 7 his season, increasing his likelihood of scoring, especially in high-pressure matches.
Up against the poor Nantes defense, David’s chance of getting on the scoresheet as Lille’s primary attacker is boosted. His intelligent movement and positioning will make him a constant threat in the opposition’s penalty area.
