Lille continue their pursuit of Ligue 1’s top two when they make the trip to Sochaux on Sunday.
Lille are currently third in France’s top flight with a record of 10 wins, nine draws and two losses leaving them in the final qualifying spot for next season’s Champions League.
They are seven points behind second-placed Montpellier and 10 points behind leaders Paris St Germain, but Lille have played a game less than those two teams. They bounced back from a loss to Marseille by beating St Etienne last time out, and Lille are 7/10 favourites to make it two wins in a row.
Sochaux are bottom of the standings, but a record of four wins, seven draws and 10 losses means they are only a point from safety after 21 games.
They ended a five-game losing run in all competitions by drawing with Lorient last time out, and Sochaux are 17/4 to build on that point with a shock victory here, while the draw is priced 5/2.
