Chelsea vs Lille Prediction & Tips
European champions Chelsea begin the second phase of the 2021/2022 Champions League at home. Thomas Thuchel’s Blues, who, after winning the European Super Cup in August, completed the job a week ago by becoming world club champions by beating Palmeiras in extra time, returned to play in the league where they had not played since 2-0 home against Tottenham and, albeit with some difficulty, they won another London derby at Selhurst Park against Crystal Palace for 1-0 thanks to the goal of Hakim Ziyech. Now the former French champions await (in the 2020/2021 season) who are far from that team that just a season ago won the title and even in the last round did not go beyond the 0-0 home match against Metz. The eleven coached by Jocelyn Gourvennec is largely underdog in the odds of the bookmakers thanks to an early 2022 which saw him winning away only once between Ligue 1 and the French Cup. The two teams met in the group stage in the 2019/2020 season and in both games they won Chelsea 2-1.
Chelsea have remained unbeaten in 17 of their last 19 Champions League games.
Chelsea have won the last 4 Champions League games played at home and always without conceding a goal.
Chelsea have been unbeaten at Stamford Bridge since 2 October.
Lille have conceded goals in 16 of the 17 away games played this season between league and cups.
Chelsea widely favored as is also evident from the odds of the bookmakers. In the group stage he has never conceded a goal at home and if you are looking for a “captivating” odds, we recommend the combo with 1 + No Goal.
