Lille and Freiburg face off in this Europa League clash, with Lille sitting down in 21st place but likely already confirmed a place in the playoffs, with there needing to be a big goal difference swing for them to miss out, and Freiburg sitting pretty in 3rd place but hoping for a strong finish to give them the best possible draw heading into the round of 16.
Key Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals @ 1.91
Lille Predicted Lineup: Ozer, Santos, Ngoy, Mbemba, Mandi, Parraud, Mbappe, Mukau, Bouaddi, Fernandez-Pardo, Giroud
Freiburg Predicted lineup: Atubolu, Kubler, Ginter, Rosenfelder, Treu, Eggstein, Osterhage, Beste, Suzuki, Scherhant, Matanovic
Lille sit 21st in the table with nine points from their seven games and a two-point cushion to Ludogorets, who head the chasing pack. Lille's last two Europa League games have ended in defeat against Celta Vigo and Young Boys, respectively, and they will be hoping to change those fortunes ahead of the playoff stage.
Freiburg are in 3rd and have accumulated a seventeen-point total, which has them in with a shout of finishing top if they get a win here. Recent form in the competition has been about as good as they could have hoped for, with the German side currently unbeaten in their seven games with five wins and two draws.
The two sides haven't met in a competitive fixture.
