Lille are unbeaten in 14, winning three of their last four
The French side have won three of their five Champions League games so far
Sturm Graz have lost four of their last five in Europe
David can extend Lille’s fine form
Lille are on an incredible 14-game unbeaten run and they are well-positioned to progress in the Champions League. With 10 points from their first five games, the Ligue 1 side are surprise contenders for a top-eight finish, with a favourable game to come on Wednesday.
Sturm Graz have lost four of their five matches in the League Phase, including three defeats to nil in their last four starts. The Austrian outfit have scored only two goals across their last five in Europe, while they’ve already lost to French opposition following September’s 2-1 loss at Brest.
Lille are clearly the stronger side and their three wins from their last four point to them easily dispatching the visitors. It boosts the hosts’ chances that they can call upon in-form forward Jonathan David, who has scored four goals in his last five Champions League games. The striker has scored a brace in each of his last two matches and he can lead an impressive Lille side to another win in Europe.
